Document Management Services

Complex litigation requires command of voluminous documentation. Staggering quantities of electronic records are discoverable and recoverable.  In the age of e-discovery, even deleted files may be produced through computer forensics.  Knowing what is in the documentation, which documents are critical, and where to quickly and accurately find specific documents can mean the difference in the outcome of a case.  Asserting and supporting privileges and denying or conditioning access to and use of documents is essential.  Establishing the true meaning of potentially damaging documents through understanding and being able to explain their context is critical.  The ability to retrieve specific documents in the heat of litigation is mandatory.

At BSCR we recognize that effective document management must be an integral part of the development of the case, not a separate undertaking merely identifying and cataloging documents.  Frequent coordination and consultation among the litigation team/lead counsel and document managers enhances the efficiency of the litigation strategy.  Document managers inform the litigation team of emerging issues, facts and critical documents that enable the team to constantly refine and conform the litigation strategy to the documentary record, while the litigation team focuses the attention of the document managers on issues considered critical to the case. 

BSCR’s document management services provide:

• Seamless integration with the litigation team creating coordination impossible to attain when document management is being handled by a third party;
• Document managers familiar with the expressions and lingo of American English and specialized terms of numerous professions;
• Attorneys with broad experience in a myriad of types of litigation and knowledgeable about the latest evidentiary requirements for document production;
• Central time zone location facilitating communication at reasonable hours with both coasts; and
• Cost-effective, Midwestern rates.

Fully integrating document management activities into our litigation practice is one of the many ways BSCR strives to provide quality legal representation at a reasonable cost.
