Tip of the Week

When a firm is retained for a Hart Scott Rodino Act case, the documentation that is exchanged back and forth between parties in the discovery process can become extensive, depending on the number of parties involved in the lawsuit, and the type of business involved in the antitrust lawsuit.

During the discovery process, the firm that is forwarding discovery documents must review them to ensure there are no attorney-client privileged documents or other confidential documents that are forwarded to opposing counsel. When a firm receives discovery, it must review the received discovery to properly negotiate a settlement or litigate a matter.

Legal staffing agencies provide experienced document review attorneys to help a firm review incoming and outgoing documentation for discovery purposes. The experienced document review attorneys separate confidential documents so that non-discoverable documents are not produced to the opposing parties.
