About Us
Our Mission
Our mission is to develop innovative software that empowers our clients to overcome electronic information challenges and embrace new opportunities in the dispute resolution and regulatory compliance markets, internationally.
Since the establishment of eDiscovery Tools in 2002 our software products have been embraced by a client base that includes many of the largest international law firms, consulting practices and service providers.
With offices and clients throughout South East Asia, the United Kingdom,
the United States and Canada,
eDiscovery Tools is well positioned to work with its clients and partners to
embrace new opportunities and address emerging challenges in this exciting,
expanding market.
Our Team
The eDiscovery Tools team comprises lawyers and technologists with
extensive practical experience in the application of technology to dispute
resolution. Our software solutions leverage the niche experience of team
members who have also been involved in international court engagements to
develop electronic
litigation strategies and related practice materials.
Our Values
We strive to achieve our corporate values which are to:-
-
exceed expectations and develop long term relationships with our clients.
-
be insightful and innovative.
-
be flexible, supportive and respectful with each other and with our clients.
-
embrace diversity and support work life balance.
-
maintain our integrity by ‘doing the right thing’ and promoting best practice in our industry.
Our Commitment - Keeping Costs Proportionate
We are acutely aware of the emerging trends in our market and are constantly innovating to embrace these developments and support best practice through our software solutions.
Our products are increasingly focused around the need to maintain proportionality - ensuring that the costs of resolving a dispute do not outweigh the amount at stake. This is particularly important now that most cases involve enormous volumes of potentially relevant electronic evidence that render traditional practices unsustainable. For example, the practice of incurring the cost of processing, or printing large volumes of irrelevant material before review even commences is now increasingly unsustainable and disproportionate. While our software tools can automate these traditional approaches, they also facilitate more efficient emerging best practices.
Courts internationally are also leading the way by proposing new discovery tests and practice directions that are empathetic to the new challenges that increasing data volumes present. At the same time large, corporate clients are increasingly trying to avoid litigation altogether through fear that rampant escalation of electronic discovery costs will overwhelm the desired commercial outcomes.
