eDiscovery
Following recent developments and changes in NI Court procedure, eDiscovery is becoming more prevalent in legal cases in Northern Ireland. We recognise the challenges that this brings to clients who are often not accustomed to utilising eDiscovery techniques or technology in their litigation matters. We have the most experienced team currently practicing eDiscovery in Northern Ireland, having been offering eDiscovery services in the Northern Ireland Courts since 2017. We are therefore in the best position to assist lawyers and their clients in navigating recent changes and developments. We have the skills, experience and technology to give you an edge in litigation, from the smallest cases to the very largest.
We have managed the electronic discovery in the largest eDiscovery case in Irish history, and have administered the only fully digital public inquiry cases in Irish history. We provide end-to-end technical eDiscovery services, and have provided these services in dozens of proceedings
Our Services
Our expertise covers the entire breadth of eDiscovery services, from identifying and preserving evidence, collecting and processing it for review, providing and supporting review services and producing it to the other side. We can also assist with presenting evidence during Trial, whether in a Court or Inquiry setting.

We maintain multiple licences for our first-line Relativity and Nuix e-discovery platforms and we can support a wide range of other discovery platforms. We can collect evidence from dozens of computers in a single day and have the servers to process the data and deliver it for review more quickly than any of our competitors.
