LDiscovery, LLC, a leading provider of eDiscovery services, today announced its merger with Renew Data Corp, a legal consulting and technology company, based in Austin, TX, with solutions that address the full spectrum of the Electronic Discovery Reference Model (EDRM).
The merger creates an industry leading full service eDiscovery provider with unparalleled capabilities offering best of breed services backed by leading edge 3rd party and proprietary technologies. LDiscovery is creating a new class of service provider which offers services within and beyond the boundaries of the EDRM by leveraging its expertise in litigation support and information governance with proven software development, information security and IT infrastructure capabilities.
The LDiscovery Companies, with more than 230 full time employees, now includes LDiscovery, AlphaLit, Flash Data Solutions, and RenewData. The combined enterprise offers the following capabilities to its corporate, law firm and government clients:
“An industry leader in quality, client service and processing, LDiscovery offers the perfect complement of strengths and opportunities for synergies that are sure to be of tremendous value in supporting our clients,” said Jim Blayney, the outgoing CEO of RenewData who is working with Christopher Weiler and the rest of the management team to assure a smooth transition for clients, partners and employees. “We are now able to provide services internationally with a London processing and hosting center, offer Managed Document Review for a completely seamless eDiscovery experience, and achieve greater processing speed with LDiscovery’s world class processing technology.”
RenewData will maintain its brand name and continue offering its full range of services from Austin, TX, but will now leverage LDiscovery’s proprietary and industry leading ESI processing technology which is capable of accurately processing massive amounts of data in a fraction of the time of competitive solutions.
“With its roots going back to the very early stages of eDiscovery, RenewData has continued to innovate and achieve excellence in the eDiscovery industry”, stated Christopher Weiler, co-founder and President of LDiscovery. “Building on its world class data center, tape processing capabilities, and its proprietary Language-Based Analytics℠, RenewData continually raises the bar in developing technology solutions for the legal market. LDiscovery welcomes RenewData and its talented employees, including its world class project management and operations team and exceptional software engineers and IT professionals, into our family and looks forward to continue setting the standard for technology and customer service excellence in our industry for years to come.”
The LDiscovery Companies launched a new Enterprise Solutions Division which will be spearheaded by industry thought leader Hemanth Salem. “The Enterprise Solutions Division will lead the strategic initiative to provide corporations and law firms with leading edge technology solutions and technical consulting services covering the entire information lifecycle from compliance monitoring to retention and legal holds to managing portfolios of litigation and investigations of any size and complexity”, said Hemanth Salem, Senior Vice President. “We have an extremely powerful combination of best of breed and proprietary technologies along with a team of leading experts to help corporations and law firms solve their enterprise level eDiscovery and information governance challenges.”
Rick Williams, Managing Partner of WestView Capital Partners commented, “With a focus on high quality service delivery, Christopher Weiler and his team have built an industry-leading provider of eDiscovery services and technology solutions. This combination creates an outstanding platform to continue LDiscovery’s strong growth both organically and through additional acquisitions.”
