Selecting a review team is a strategic choice that can provide tangible benefits to companies facing significant investigation and litigation events. We launched Redgrave Review and Analytics (“R&A”) to oversee and conduct strategic document reviews tailored to unique client and matter needs and to leverage the most defensible and efficient tools and workflows to achieve the best client outcomes. Our R&A team has extensive experience in complex litigation management and document review and brings a robust, tech-savvy, and seamless approach to matters.

Why should clients care about selecting the right provider?
Discovery costs continue to rise, consistently serving as the costliest component of litigation. Selecting the right provider can provide clients with a fundamental advantage in managing—even reducing—the exorbitant cost of litigation. Whether providing strategies to limit the scope of preservation and collection at the pre-litigation stage or utilizing cutting-edge technologies to minimize the cost of document review, the right provider should be considered an essential tool for an effective litigation strategy for every client.
What are the biggest challenges that face clients in this space?
The increasing volume of electronic data and electronic data sources provides a challenge to clients aiming to retain this data as part of their ordinary course of business and to preserve it in anticipation of litigation. The expansion of electronic data sources, such as mobile device data, employee communication software data, and social media data, not only creates the daunting task of preserving all data from the various sources to meet their obligation but also presents ever-evolving challenges on how to appropriately and accurately review that data.
My all-time favorite book is ______.
The Warmth of Other Suns by Ida Wilkerson. It interweaves the stories of three participants in the Great Migration, each migrating with different experiences to different cities in the North and West. I love this book because it truly embodies the hopes, fears, and consequences of an often little-discussed period in American history. As an African American from the South, this book not only educated me on the Great Migration but also inspired me to learn about the effects of the Great Migration on my family members who lived through it.
