Litigation support and technology consultancy Legal Inc has announced an exclusive partnership with US vendor Clearwell Systems.

Legal Inc will be the only dedicated litigation support specialist to have rights in the UK legal market to host Clearwell’s much vaunted edisclosure platform, a top 5 ranking application in the 2008 Socha-Gelbmann Electronic Discovery Survey and one of the stand-out solution at this year’s LegalTech New York event.

Commenting on its addition to the Legal Inc portfolio, director Lisa Burton said: “There have been so many edisclosure solutions pushing themselves forward over the past 18 months that it would be understandable if litigators were a little jaundiced, sceptical even, about the trumpeting of yet another tool.

But its reception at LegalTech merely confirmed our own opinion – that this is as smart, powerful and intuitive a search tool as we’ve seen. We are hugely impressed with its simplicity, clarity and unerring ability to find and excise unwanted data, and we are confident in Clearwell’s own claims that it can lower processing costs by up to 80% and reduce review workload by up to 90%. For those looking to accelerate early case assessments in particular, it offers a compelling combination of cost-effectiveness, capability and control.”
