Legal Knowledge Management
Anyone who has ever searched fruitlessly for the information buried deep within
one document among thousands knows that knowledge management is a challenge. Multiply
that by the number of trial and appellate briefs, memoranda, pleadings, depositions,
e-mails, letters, and spreadsheets—prepared by inside and outside counsel alike—and
the challenge becomes even more daunting.
The bigger the knowledge base, the harder the problem; as the Assistant General
Counsel of a Fortune 500 insurance company said, "We know we're paying for research
over and over again. We just don't know how to reuse it." Millions of dollars in
knowledge assets lay hidden, filed away beyond all hope of timely retrieval.
Until now.

cost-savings problems. With our Knowledge Management, your company could:
