Business Wire
Pitney Bowes Legal Solutions (PBLS), a leading provider of
document management, eDiscovery and litigation support services and
division of Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE: PBI), today announced several
significant enhancements to its eDiscovery and litigation services
portfolio for law firms and corporate counsel. PBLS has added
industry-leading early case assessment (ECA) and hosted review
software and managed review services to its comprehensive
eDiscovery offering, as well as made significant additional
investments in its national data center and service delivery
teams.
PBLS has added IPRO Allegro, an early case assessment tool that
provides insight into the size, scope, and composition of data
collections before the start of eDiscovery processing and review,
to its offering. IPRO Allegro enables interactive, real time
culling of the case data using search terms and metadata filters,
which can significantly reduce the volume of relevant documents for
review and save processing time by up to 95%.
In addition, PBLS has partnered with kCura to provide customers
access to Relativity, a feature-rich online review platform that
offers flexibility and scalability for managing complex analysis,
review, and production projects.
Both Allegro and Relativity are supported by PBLS’ national data
processing center in Grand Rapids, Mich., where terabytes of data
and millions of pages of documents are processed and managed
annually.
“These technology partnerships complement our already-powerful
portfolio of leading legal discovery solutions and provide
significant additional value to our clients,” said Stephen
Whetstone, Leader of Pitney Bowes Legal Solutions. “Rather than use
the same hammer for every legal discovery project, Pitney Bowes
Legal Solutions is determined to use the right tool at the right
price at the right location for each unique job. When it comes to
eDiscovery one size does not fit
all.”
As part of PBLS’ ongoing effort to deliver the best service and
value possible, the company has engaged the Association of
Certified E-Discovery Specialists, an independent training and
verification organization, to deliver continued education and
certification for its project managers, business development
representatives and staff. To date, key members of the PBLS team
have completed the internationally-recognized ACEDS certified
training and testing program, with more staff members enrolled to
complete the program in 2012.
Rounding out its full range of eDiscovery services, PBLS has
enhanced its managed review capabilities via an alliance with Grand
Rapids-based RCA Business Solutions to deliver flexible and
scalable managed review for projects of all sizes, both on-site and
off-site. This provides our clients on-demand access to a highly
trained review staff, which includes former judges, in-house
counsel, trial attorneys, law firm partners, patent attorneys, and
other licensed U.S. attorneys, to provide managed review of large
volumes of electronically stored information and paper records in
litigation.
Pitney Bowes Legal Solutions is a leading provider of document
management, eDiscovery and litigation support services designed to
help law firms, corporate legal departments and government agencies
operate more efficiently and effectively. A division of Pitney
Bowes Management Services, Pitney Bowes Legal Solutions designs and
