Still Doing Linear Document Review In 2017: Honestly?
Accessible technology with an intuitive interface enables attorneys and their teams to easily enhance the discovery process.
eDiscovery has come a long way. Once used for reviewing scanned paper, modern eDiscovery technology is now capable of analyzing and categorizing millions of documents by leveraging visualizations and predictive technologies. And yet, many legal teams are still reviewing documents in a linear manner. One document at a time, with little context or creativity. Why?
The fact is many legal teams do not know how to get started with all that eDiscovery has to offer. Technologies like analytics, TAR, and advanced search at times befuddles even the most tech savvy attorneys. After seeing the artificial intelligence (AI) CaseAssist technology from Casepoint, however, that’s all about to change.
“Using CaseAssist for a few minutes helped identify interesting documents, which then led to a document review strategy that provided real meaning.”
CaseAssist is user-friendly artificial intelligence. Attorneys simply tell CaseAssist the names of important people, a list of some important dates, or point out documents that look interesting and the AI does the rest. It rapidly finds documents and emails that may be helpful. And it learns. If the attorneys “like” certain documents, CaseAssist will suggest more.
CaseAssist is a stark departure from basic TAR 1.0 or TAR 2.0 technologies. It not only identifies documents through predictive algorithms, but it also allows attorneys to explore interesting data by finding documents at the intersection of ideas. CaseAssist is intuitive and natural without requiring a computer science degree to get real results. Using CaseAssist for a few minutes helped identify interesting documents, which then led to a document review strategy that provided real meaning. Document review no longer needs to be about going from document to document in a linear fashion, instead it can provide context.
Finding interesting documents quickly, led to Casepoint’s other strength: its feature-complete review platform. Casepoint has all the tagging panels, batch management features, and multiple co-counsel capabilities needed to perform a systematic document review. Not only did Casepoint accelerate the review process through its CaseAssist technology, but it also provided a structured platform to help the attorneys fulfill their discovery obligations.
Accessible technology with an intuitive interface enables attorneys and their teams to easily enhance the discovery process. Unlike technocentric features like analytics and TAR, CaseAssist by Casepoint makes it easy to leverage the most cutting edge features, without needing a techie to get started. Casepoint’s full strength review capabilities allows attorneys to dot all of the “I’s” and cross all of the “T’s” to finish the job. Casepoint makes it user-friendly to go beyond linear review and to be more connected to the legal task at hand.
