Litigators and eDiscovery practitioners often face a common document review challenge when preparing for litigation – too many documents (and too little time to get through them). Linear review, that is, reviewing every document individually, is the most appropriate option in certain situations, but can often be complemented by predictive coding. This is a defensible way to create massive time and cost savings, preserving budget for merits counsel, not for eDiscovery and document review partners

Our mission is to provide litigator-led eDiscovery – meaning we approach every client with recommendations from the perspective of practicing attorneys. Each matter is unique – and we’re not in the business of shilling for any particular software provider.
With multiple eDiscovery partners we make a recommendation based on the unique circumstances of each matter. Every platform has one or more strengths, and having multiple partners allows us to keep tabs on market changes, separate innovation...
In January we published a tongue in cheek bingo card before Legalweek that poked fun of many of the words and phrases used by eDiscovery software and services providers, like “voluminous data” and “explosion of data.”
It was a silly thing, but it resonated because the terms were all so ubiquitous.
By its very nature, eDiscovery is serious work. Truly, whenever litigators and legal professionals get together, it’s probably serious because the outcome of litigation, investigations, and government actions carry massive financial and emotional consequences for adverse parties and counsel.
On October 1, 2022, Proteus will become the first Relativity partner to eliminate user fees for data hosted in RelativityOne.
"Is it PROteus? ProTEEus? Pro-TAY-us? What is that? What does it mean?"
When my partners and I were preparing to launch Proteus in 2015, I wanted a name that carried multiple layers of meaning, including a nod to the type of work we do (apply advanced technology to the tradition-bound legal industry) and homage to our hometown (Indianapolis).
AmLaw firms get lots of love in eDiscovery circles, leaving many small and mid-sized firms to feel under-resourced and unsure of what to do when they have eDiscovery needs. This brief post is addressed to small law firms, and while it doesn't contain anything earth-shattering, hopefully it will grant a bit of perspective and peace of mind.
2020 has been a banner year for highlighting the visceral relevance of cybersecurity. Risk mitigation is being discussed regularly, but law firms cannot eliminate their biggest source of risk: employees.
A $128 million lawsuit is not a typical day in the office. When LeClairRyan and UnitedLex joined forces in 2018, neither party saw it ending like this.
