Outsourcing of Legal document analysis and management services
Review and management of legal documents is a tedious task, labor-intensive, and costly step in the process of litigation. Often carried out in the discovery or e-discovery phase, legal teams must spend countless hours collecting, reviewing, and analyzing documents to understand what is the most important document, and whether the document is “responsive” or “unresponsive”. Legal case.
Proper legal document analysis not only understands the significance or responsiveness of the document but also ensures that you and your team can properly write attractive legal proceedings without loopholes that opposing lawyers can exploit. At Proteus Discovery Group, we are a pioneer in electronic and manual document analysis services. Our review team consists of real legal lawyers, paralegals, and other legal experts. Their systematic approach describes several variables such as case strategy, efficiency, grasp of base case information, document tagging, and quality control for a comprehensive review of all procedures.

First Level Document Review
A preliminary review of documents before litigation and for the stage of internal investigation involves a thorough review of all legal documents to identify whether a particular document is relevant to the case. It also includes other skills, such as inside information, the topic of the problem, and key information.
Step 2 / Advanced Document Review
This step involves advanced coding of all relevant documents. In-depth identification of authorized documents to maintain or edit, and identification of documents for depositing. We also ensure that all documents are created and archived in specific folders that are differentiated and easily accessible by topic, issue, and related parts.
What are the document review and management processes?
This process includes the review of a vast number of legal documents. The cost of reviewing documents accounts for a large part of the total cost of litigation. Proteus Discovery provides excellent document management and review services to companies, law firms, and legal research agencies worldwide at cost-friendly rates. Our team of legal specialists follows proven management practices and document review procedures. We have a strong technical infrastructure to review your documents within a short turnaround time.
Proteus Discovery’s review team specializes in reviewing documents at various levels and leverages a wide range of lawyers and legal experts to create solid cases for clients. A systematic approach to the review of legal documents includes the following steps:
1. Find Basic Case Information
It is very difficult to conduct an efficient review without understanding the underlying problems of the case. As a result, you first start by understanding the case literature and checking keywords, key names, date ranges, etc. This will help us to prepare and ready for the next step of the challenge, reviewing the content of all documents.
02. Case Strategy
After understanding the full factual background to the case in question, we start to understand exactly what your legal team wants to achieve. This is essential because many prosecutions rely on discovery and document review if they want to proceed further with the case or prepare a settlement. We believe that we can fine-tune our approach, whether defensive or aggressive, by having the facts tell the story as it is.
03. Tagging documents
As a legal document review service provider, one of the main steps in the process is document tagging. Consistency is key, as all reviewers use a common set of tags to apply to documents after receiving approval for using the same tag. Depending on the case goal, we use a simple approach (relevance, no essentials, privileged)or proceed in-depth (case lead, non-favor, neutral, favor, etc.). The key here is for all reviewers to understand the process and ensure homogeneity as a whole.
04. Quality Control Check
One of the facts in a document review process that a most experienced reviewer also makes mistakes when considering the scope of the project.
Related documents may be incorrectly tagged or confidential documents may be moved to the production set. As a result, our quality control measures are basically one of the most difficult to bypass, such as regularly sampling reviewed documents and sampling more documents from important categories.
05. Efficient delivery
Accuracy and thoroughness are the foundation of our company as a legal document review service provider of your choice. At the same time, speed and efficiency are also very important, as large review projects can increase costs. A strong analysis team like ours helps you manage inflated costs by conducting high-quality document reviews within the prescribed time frame.
Legal document review-Our key differentiators
Over the years, we have added many values to our legal document review services, allowing us to make compelling arguments for our clients. Here are some of the ways we differentiate ourselves from competitors while ensuring maximum benefits for our customers:
Narrowing the data volume
Controlling the amount of data that needs to be reviewed allows you to control the final narrative. Based on your information, we aim to reduce the document by removing unnecessary things in the first place, and also provide a way to return to the document if changes are needed at the last minute. Our ability to narrow the review funnel ensures that we can deliver more within the same time period compared to other service providers.
Proportional Utilization
Ideally, the costs involved in the search of documents should be proportional to the value of the case. If you feel that the case is roughly evaluated. At $ 25,000, we ensure that the review part does not spend the higher costs that many other companies can do. Add to this the fact that uncooperative opposition can lead to many e-discovery requests, further complicating the document review process.
Therefore, Proteus Discovery always checks the potential data volume and evaluates the cost of reviewing all documents based on historical data. This allows for clearer information based on the relevant price, allowing you to plan your budget accordingly.
Working with the internal review team
Often, corporate legal teams deliver projects to service providers and expect full document reviews to be completed. I believe that document review should be a mutual effort between both teams through frequent communication and status updates. We have earned rich dividends under this policy, and all our customers appreciate faster and more effective processes, which are characteristic of good communication processes.
Software Advantages
We are one of the best document review service providers to utilize Technology Assisted Review (TAR), which involves predictive coding tools for fast processing. By integrating artificial intelligence (AI)into your software, you can address the most complex client requirements, such as:
- Search filtering-Allows us to review documents for specific keywords, word combinations, etc. for tagging related documents.
- Document Tagging-Consistent tagging is necessary during document review. We use software to apply predefined tags to documents to ensure that labels remain constant throughout.
- Document modification-Depending on specific legality, you may need to modify the document before submitting it to an external lawyer. Our ediscovery software allows you to easily and quickly edit documents (phrases and complete sentences), simplifying the process.
- Document batches-Typically, a set of documents should be split into batches for multiple reviewer units. Our software platform makes it easy to specific tasks based on skill level while ensuring that appropriate records remain the same.
- This feature, also known as stamping-Bates numbering, makes it easy to always find reference documents in the production set as disputes progress. This is guaranteed through a unique identifier number.
