Volume to Value: Rhoades McKee Refines Strategy with DISCO

Rhoades McKee team faced an uphill battle when they inherited a complex, multi-jurisdictional case. To get the case back on track and meet impending deadlines, the firm’s litigation team had to overhaul its strategy, executing both a targeted recollection and an accelerated review to reach the core facts.

Rhoades McKee found a true partner in DISCO professional services. First, DISCO’s forensics team recollected the data to ensure it was sound and defensible. Forensics then seamlessly handed off to DISCO’s project managers, who optimized search terms and identified junk data to develop a streamlined set for the review team. This allowed the DISCO review team to reduce the 70,000 document database to roughly 18,000 responsive documents in just 10 days.

This expert assistance was instrumental in Rhoades McKee meeting its deadlines and better understanding the details of this complex case. “We could not have done this without DISCO,” said Jaime Elhart, the lead paralegal on the case. “Their expertise and responsiveness reassured us that no matter how crazy these cases get, DISCO always has our back. And that reassurance is priceless.”
