Tom O'Connor, author and e-discovery expert, used Digital WarRoom, then joined the team!

GGO, creators of the Digital WarRoom platform for accessible, affordable e-discovery, today announced that e-discovery expert, author and attorney Tom O’Connor has joined the company in a Senior Consultant role.

 

“I’m excited to join the team who is making significant advances with e-discovery technology”, said O’Connor. “A few years ago, in my consulting role as Gulf Coast Legal Technology, I brought GGO in to support hosted e-discovery in matters related to the BP Oil spill litigation. The process was flawless, and the client was very satisfied with the software and the project results. In the course of working with GGO, I realized how wicked smart these guys are. I can bring them any database or document analytics challenge, and they take it on with gusto. After several clients had the same positive experience (some with GGO full-service hosted review, and some on Digital WarRoom in-house software), I knew that this company has a roadmap for success.”

 

  1. The price tag is high, often too high for the average case. The relative lack of affordable solutions leaves attorneys to improvise and ‘hack’ at document review for everyday matters,” said O’Connor.

 

  1. Law firms and corporate legal teams should know that there truly is a universal e-discovery solution, and a great resource here.”

 

Law firms, Litigation Support teams, and Corporate Counsel are invited to contact Tom for a low-key complimentary evaluation and discussion of their e-discovery plans. Contact Tom at tom@ggollc.com.
