Learn how Phaselaw can accelerate your production of documents for litigation, regulatory inquiries, data sharing, or law enforcement requests.
How can Phaselaw's product help legal teams with document production?
Whether it's for a litigation response, a GDPR-related request, or simply sharing data with a partner, large-scale document production can be a time consuming and arduous process.
Phaselaw eliminates the most tedious parts of document review so legal teams can focus on high impact work.
Below, we share details on how we help across the process of responding to a document production request.
Document collection
Once your team has identified and gathered Electronically Stored Information (ESI), you can import files of any format to Phaselaw's systems for processing.
Preservation
ESI preservation is a critical topic in eDiscovery processes. Phaselaw holds a separate copy of all data uploaded to its systems and retains this data with strict Chain-of-Custody processes to ensure that data is retained and is not subject to modification.
Processing
Raw ESI poses a host a review challenges, and Phaselaw eliminates much of the heavy lifting so you can focus on review:
- Converting all source documents to PDF so that they can be reviewed in a consistent format.
- Processing scans and other images using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) so that text is searchable and editable.
- Deduplicating multiple copies of documents.
- Handling attachments, grouping emails by thread, and identifying duplicate content across emails.
Relevance review
Our search and tagging tools help teams quickly sift through large collections of documents and filter items as in- or out- of scope.
Privilege review
Reviewing documents for legal privilege is one of the most time-consuming parts of the review process. Phaselaw helps teams to filter documents based on metadata such as sender/receiver or on body content, and to tag documents as privileged based on those searches.
When redacting documents for privilege, Phaselaw's Redact Once, Apply Everywhere ensures decisions are made consistently when the same content is duplicated across documents.
Redaction
Teams frequently need to redact Personal Data as well as other confidential data across responsive documents. Phaselaw's AI tools automatically identify personal information in documents to speed up the redaction process and our Redact Once, Apply Everywhere ensures that any redaction decision you make can be applied consistently across all documents.
Collaboration
Across the review process, Phaselaw makes it easy to collaborate on documents and review decisions. You can assign documents to reviewers, tag documents based on status, and even invite outside counsel to access specific documents.
