Greensfelder, Hemker & Gale, P.C. Deploys Relativity Firm Wide

St. Louis-based law firm selects e-discovery platform for its customizable workflow capabilities, scalability, and ease of use

Press Release – Chicago, IL – January 31, 2011 – kCura today announced that Greensfelder, Hemker & Gale, P.C. has implemented Relativity for e-discovery document review. Through customizable workflows and an easy-to-understand user interface, Relativity has greatly accelerated the review process for Greensfelder’s case teams.  

“I’ve never seen a piece of software so quickly and easily search such a large database,” said Dana Kujawa, litigation support manager at Greensfelder. “We have a case containing more than one million records in our system, but with Relativity, it feels like there are only one hundred records. The review platform makes our litigation support team more valuable to the firm.”

Relativity provides Greensfelder with the following benefits:

  • Customizable Workflows:  Relativity enables case managers to set up customized workflows for faster review. By simplifying Relativity’s user interface and providing case teams with only the options they need, Greensfelder has greatly reduced their time spent reviewing documents. For example, one of the law firm’s cases required more than 30,000 documents to be produced in a limited time frame. With Relativity, eight of Greensfelder’s attorneys were able to complete this review in less than three days.

 

  • Scalability:  Relativity gives users the scalability to handle the industry’s most complex e-discovery projects.  With the ability to expand capacity quickly, Relativity has allowed Greensfelder to take million-document cases and place them in a centralized location for analysis, review, and production. 

 

  • Ease of Use:  Relativity’s native review features, advanced search capabilities, and streamlined user interface contribute to the platform’s ease-of-use. With minimal training, Greensfelder’s attorneys are able to quickly navigate from document to document in order to make decisions during review.

“It is clear that Greensfelder’s first priority is to fully understand their clients’ legal issues and business goals,” said Andrew Sieja, president and CEO of kCura. “It’s fantastic to see the firm already experiencing success with Relativity, and we look forward to working with them as they continue to provide excellent litigation support solutions to their clients.
