The platform will allow A&O to run a secure e-discovery solution in the cloud, and enable the firm to gain insights and drive effective outcomes sooner. 

“The future of litigation lies in technology and how we harness it in conjunction with legal expertise to meet the clients’ litigation challenges – striking the optimal balance between cost, risk and quality,” said A&O head of e-discovery, Scott Robson.

“A&O’s e-discovery business is taking the first step in meeting this challenge by rolling out our combined legal and technology methodology – offering RelativityOne – to our clients across the globe.”

A&O partner Calum Burnett offered a similar sentiment, noting the firm was excited to work with Relativity on the implementation of its product.

“This addition to our Advanced Delivery services will ensure that our lawyers and clients remain at the forefront of technological innovation,” Mr Burnett said.

“As a firm, we are focussed on investing in technology and working practices that support our eDiscovery business.

“As volumes of data and information continue to increase, we need a secure, advanced platform with scalability and world class support to meet that challenge and we have no doubt that RelativityOne will provide us with the right solution.”
