Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) August 11, 2009 -- Encore Discovery Solutions (Encore), a knowledge-based provider of electronic discovery and related services, today announced the adoption of Equivio's technology for near-duplicates and email threads. The Equivio solution enhances the efficiency of Encore's litigation support services, translating into significant time and cost savings for Encore clients.

One of the nation's leading providers of electronic discovery and related services, Encore provides an end-to-end discovery solution, covering every phase of the litigation lifecycle including project scoping, preservation of data, data collections, data minimization, processing, hosting, review, and production. Its extensive client base includes Fortune 500 and AmLaw 200 law firms.

"In today's challenging economic climate, corporate litigation expenses are being monitored more closely than ever," said Gregory J. Mazares, President and Chief Executive Officer at Encore. "In tune with our clients' needs, Encore is committed to using technologies that improve efficiency and reduce discovery costs. Equivio's near-duplicate and email thread technology has proven its ability to significantly reduce discovery costs, while simultaneously enhancing quality. Equivio technology has become a "must have" component for any client looking to minimize document review costs."

The grouping of near-duplicates and email threads allows attorneys to skip redundant data, while focusing exclusively on the unique information in each document. By enhancing the findability of data, Equivio reduces the risk of missing key information. The Equivio groupings also ensure similar documents are treated consistently, while enhancing review productivity and helping litigators meet tight deadlines.

"The most expensive and time consuming phase of most discovery projects is the review of documents by legal professionals," said Amir Milo, CEO of Equivio. "Based on their vast experience in large-scale discovery projects, Encore understands the key role that technologies play in addressing this bottleneck. The adoption of Equivio's technology for near-duplicates and email threads helps Encore's customers quickly zero in on the critical data they need to win cases, while simultaneously saving 30 to 50% in review costs."
