Epiq Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq:EPIQ), a leading provider of technology solutions for the legal profession, today reported that it has expanded its eDiscovery service offerings to include data collections, forensics and document review. Additionally, Epiq has opened new international eDiscovery offices in Hong Kong and Brussels. Epiq Systems' eDiscovery capabilities now represent a complete global end-to-end solution with a significant footprint in all major legal and financial centers to support large scale multinational cases.
The extension of service offerings to provide full lifecycle eDiscovery solutions further enhances Epiq's leadership position in the marketplace. These integrated services, delivered through our industry-leading DocuMatrix review platform, offer an optimized discovery process with significant bottom-line efficiencies for clients.
-- Epiq's new Forensics Acquisition Services Team provides data
preservation and collection services, with particular expertise
in the requirements of foreign jurisdictions and in handling
esoteric file systems and formats. In addition, the team provides
early data assessment, data reduction, and sampling strategies to
minimize unnecessary processing, and accelerate the
identification of relevant information.
-- Epiq Document Review Solutions, the company's new contract
document review service, leverages its industry-leading
DocuMatrix review platform to provide on-demand review of large
data collections by qualified attorneys. Skilled at deploying
DocuMatrix accelerators, specially trained attorneys working for
Epiq can review data at several times the rate of a traditional
linear review, dramatically reducing document review costs,
typically the most expensive component of discovery.
Epiq Systems has also opened new eDiscovery offices to support clients more effectively in continental Europe and Asia.
-- The new Brussels office adds client support for regulatory
compliance engagements in the European Union.
-- Epiq's Hong Kong office has a local datacenter and provides on
the ground support across Asia.
Alongside Epiq's existing offices in New York, Washington DC, Los Angeles, and London, these two new locations extend the company's reach in delivering worldwide eDiscovery client support.
Christopher E. Olofson, president and COO of Epiq Systems stated, "As a leading eDiscovery provider for top law firms and corporations, we continue to invest in our services and global presence to provide an optimized eDiscovery solution for clients.
