Document Review
Huron's Document Review services provide comprehensive review and
project management for document-intensive projects. With the spiraling
cost and increased complexity of discovery, legal and compliance
departments have been seeking newer, better solutions designed to
control expenses and reduce risk. That is exactly what we deliver. With
our state-of-the art facilities, we can blend technology and an
integrated process to ensure a work product that outperforms more
traditional methods. The result is confidence, controlled costs, and
reduced risks for the clients we serve.
Our process differs from traditional review services in three key ways:
- Centralized and simplified process – You
get the results you need without having to use multiple vendors, and
our customized process controls ensure speed, accuracy, and a guaranteed
completion date.
- Cost-certain, cost-effective pricing – We
have replaced the billable hours and a la carte pricing approaches with
a capped-cost model that eliminates invisible and unpredicted charges
and avoids "sticker shock."
- Performance measurement – We
measure our performance using objective metrics that allow the value of
our work to be validated on a project-by-project basis.
Our
services maximize value, minimize waste, and provide a predictable,
up-front capped cost. We have all the resources necessary to undertake
large-scale document reviews and perform a full range of services that
include reviews for responsiveness, privilege, issue coding, and hot
documents.
Huron officially launched its litigation
support initiative, V3locity™ (pronounced velocity), an unprecedented
predictable fixed per page priced e-discovery service encompassing
processing, hosting, review and production services in January 2008.

Huron's state-of-the-art facilities
have been custom designed for speed, accuracy, and efficiency, enabling
us to provide corporate legal departments and law firms with a unique
alternative for outsourcing the substantive aspects of document review.
With a review model that controls costs, reduces risk, and rewards
results rather than efforts, Huron is the ideal solution for large and
complex document review and discovery projects.
Comprehensive Review Services
Our
comprehensive review services differ sharply from those of traditional
staffing agencies. Beyond that, we offer both scalable and turnkey
services to ensure you get exactly what you need.
- Customization – Our services can be tailored to serve the highly specific demands of our clients and the in-house and outside attorney teams.
- Total capabilities – We
design, develop, and manage the entire review process instead of just
providing document reviewers and software and leaving the rest to the
client.
- Speed, performance, reliability – Our technology review process ensures that clients pay only for work we perform – not for delays resulting from slow computers or a poorly designed workspace.
Our
document reviewers are law school graduates, many of whom are licensed
in one or more jurisdictions, not necessarily including the jurisdiction
in which services will be provided or in any jurisdiction relevant to
the litigation.
Measured Results
The Huron
Document Review Scorecard™ provides accountability that does more than
just ensure a less expensive, more accurate document review. It also
guarantees we will meet objective, clearly defined standards by which
all document reviews are performed.
Using twelve objective metrics, it covers four areas:
- Cost
- Staffing (including diversity)
- Resource allocation and efficiency
- Overall project quality
These guaranteed
performance standards allow corporate legal departments and law firms to
outsource document review with confidence and security.
Beyond
that, our benchmark studies have shown that we are, on average, 50
percent faster, 50 percent more accurate, and 50 percent less expensive
than other models.
