In Brief, a Podcast by Law In Order

In this episode of In Brief, Robyn Kidd, Global Head of Managed Document Review and General Counsel, and Matt Hollings, Sales Manager (Qld) look at how the ever-evolving tools and processes of Managed Document Review (MDR) are being leveraged to add value to projects and for completely new applications. Robyn and Matt discuss how MDR is now being applied for contract review for assessing data points and for Information Governance in verifying and cleansing data. Robyn provides a high level view of the workflow for regulatory responses and how analytics assist with review. Also included are short case studies on how MDR has been applied for both large and small matters, and how it has assisted with workflow.
