Nashville, TN (PRWEB) September 12, 2013
Electronic discovery company DSi (formerly Document Solutions, Inc.) has implemented a new litigation support service called Predictive Plus, which combines eDiscovery, technology assisted review and attorney review services into one predictable per-gigabyte pricing model.
DSi’s alignment with Counsel On Call, a leading provider of managed services solutions and experienced attorney teams, enables them to provide an efficient bundling of eDiscovery services. Predictive Plus includes data ingestion, data processing, deduplication, date and file type filtering, predictive coding and first-pass review with technology.
“Our clients want to know what their eDiscovery costs will be at the outset of the project. At the same time, they want to take advantage of predictive coding technology, allowing software to intelligently find responsive documents. The solution is combining two best-in-breed providers to benefit our client,” said John Burchfield, DSi vice president of business development. “DSi will continue to focus on the technology while Counsel On Call maintains their expertise in review, allowing us to provide a comprehensive, unified and defensible result.”
Predictive Plus starts with data ingestion. Information is processed through DSi’s leveraged industry-standard technology, such as Clearwell, Catalyst or Eclipse, and initial filters are applied to the data, such as file type, date and deduplication. The next step is predictive coding, which begins with Counsel On Call attorneys training the system through seed sets on concepts pertinent to the case. DSi’s system produces additional small sets of documents for further review by Counsel On Call, and the platform analyzes the results to fine-tune the calibration.
The advanced technology “learns” what is responsive or privileged and applies that knowledge to the entire data population, effectively serving as a first-pass review. The end result is smaller, targeted data sets and an enhanced, streamlined review.
Additionally, Predictive Plus’ pricing model accommodates the reduced document set with a second pricing tier for only the data pushed to review, keeping costs to a minimum. The review attorneys are available to continue the process with in-depth linear review, providing consistency.
“We’ve worked with DSi on dozens of eDiscovery matters, and they are a trusted partner,” said Richard Stout, director of Counsel On Call’s managed services division. “Predictive Plus combines the strengths of DSi and Counsel On Call to provide a straightforward pricing model with one entry point for the entire process. This makes the process as cost effective as possible while continually improving the work product.”

Counsel On Call is the modern legal model, thriving where business and law merge. The company’s attorneys work with in-house legal departments and law firms in three main ways:
1. In Managed Services, or teams of attorneys on voluminous work that needs process and expert management;
2. One attorney at a time for specific assignments or durations; and
3. In a consulting role to determine how best to handle and execute legal work.
Everything Counsel On Call does is focused on process, cost and ROI, and its attorneys work at a fraction of traditional rates. The result is substantial cost savings and the ammunition Fortune 500 companies and AmLaw 200 law firms need to show the impact of the Counsel On Call model.
