The Employment Law Group® (Washington, DC) Streamlines Their Electronic Discovery Process by Switching to MerlinOne's Hosted e-Discovery Platform

Quincy, MA, December 3, 2009 – With the overwhelming adoption of computers in today's society and the complexity of information stored digitally, the methodology of reviewing discovery materials has changed drastically for the legal profession in the last few years. As a result, preparing for a case involves a much more complex and time-consuming legal review process. To avoid missing critical information and to reduce costs per case, The Employment Law Group in Washington, DC, chose a hosted electronic discovery system. The MerlinOne e-discovery platform is a powerful digital asset management system that lawyers and paralegals use to easily organize and manage millions of documents, e-mails, transcripts, photos, graphics, voicemails, and deposition videos.

The MerlinOne system is a hosted, processing and electronic discovery review platform. It indexes and makes searchable every word in all Microsoft Office documents, PDFs, emails, voicemails, and videos. For example, users can search on every cell in every sheet of an Excel document, even hidden cells. They can also search for the spoken word in a video or voicemail and start watching or listening right at that point, saving huge amounts of time.

The benefits of the MerlinOne electronic document discovery system apply across all levels of a law firm. According to David Scher, Principal at The Employment Law Group, "The MerlinOne system has been invaluable. It enables extremely fast and precise searching, and allows our clients to collaborate with us electronically to review and comment on documents critical to their cases."
