Lateral Data Unveils Predictive Tagging

Jan. 27, 2012 - PRLog -- E-Discovery technology leader Lateral Data, LP today announced the launch of Viewpoint Assisted Review as a module in its Viewpoint all-in-one e-Discovery platform. Viewpoint Assisted Review delivers full predictive tagging functionality, allowing for automated review, prioritization of review and machine-assisted quality control of attorney review. Viewpoint Assisted Review is included with every Viewpoint Enterprise Subscription.

Viewpoint is an all-inclusive e-Discovery platform that covers the core components of the Electronic Discovery Reference Model, including Collection, Early Case Assessment, Processing, Analysis, Review and Production. By fully integrating all of these tools into one product, Viewpoint delivers complete functionality, streamlined workflow, robust features and analytics to all users throughout the project.

As part of Viewpoint’s all-in-one platform, Viewpoint Assisted Review delivers some distinct advantages, including:
•   No additional cost
•   Complete integration
•   No additional training or installation required
•   Built-in analytical tools build the most efficient “seed” set in the industry
•   Viewpoint Assisted Review can be used with traditional culling to ensure the lowest possible quantity of documents are reviewed
•   Integrated Early Case Assessment (ECA)
•   Improved quality control

“Review remains the most expensive phase of discovery, and today’s data quantities are so great that pure linear review is really no longer sustainable,” said Dean Kuhlmann, VP of Business Development at Lateral Data. “Machine-assisted review is the only way. Viewpoint Assisted Review is designed to help legal teams complete review projects on time and on budget.”

Legal teams can use Viewpoint Assisted Review in a variety of ways, including automated review. Users may also reduce time and cost by separating out “likely non-responsive” documents and prioritizing the review of likely responsive document to save time and cost and using. Defensibility can also be improved by using the technology to check the quality of attorney review. “Viewpoint Assisted Review allows legal teams to gain the best of both human and machine-assisted review,” added Kuhlmann.

Viewpoint Assisted Review is available for demonstration at Lateral Data’s booth 1510 at LegalTech New York 2012 or via a live webcast. Please visit www.lateraldata.com or call (713) 592-8585 for more information.
