We regularly engage KordaMentha and have worked closely with them on small and large assignments. We have found them to be extremely knowledgeable, efficient and innovative, particularly as they seek to reduce the volume of material requiring physical review and design workflows specific to the nature of the review task. They are especially adept at intelligently applying the latest technology to efficiently manage and refine large document sets. KordaMentha are client focused and have assisted us and our clients to better manage our review processes and reduce review costs. They are also a pleasure to work with." "From the outset, the KordaMentha team demonstrated an exceptional understanding of the elements of the case, and the important role that documentary evidence would and ultimately did play in the case. KordaMentha not only provided tailored solutions to streamline our client’s document management process, their forensic investigation of the respondent’s discovery and expert analysis of the respondent’s discovery methodology were fundamental to our client’s successful application to the Court for orders regarding deficiencies in the respondent’s discovery. This ultimately led to the agreed resolution of the whole case." "On a day-to-day basis, the KordaMentha team’s professionalism, ‘can do’ attitude and collaborative spirit made the entire process seamless. They worked extremely closely with our legal team, offering insights and support that greatly enhanced our ability to present a strong case. Their outstanding contribution, particularly in their masterful use and command of Relativity and guidance to us on the forensic benefits of its use in the proceedings, was a key factor in the successful outcome of the proceedings."
