MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.—July 29, 2008—Clearwell Systems, Inc., a leader in Intelligent E-Discovery, today announced a partnership with Platinum Legal Group, Inc., a leading litigation support solution provider in Canada, to provide best-in-class e-discovery solutions to its law firm, government and enterprise clients using the Clearwell E-Discovery Platform®. Clearwell’s integrated processing, analysis, and review capabilities have been proven to accelerate early case analysis, intelligently cull-down data by 80-90 percent, and increase reviewer productivity.

“Platinum Legal Group’s e-discovery and project management expertise combined with the unique capabilities of the Clearwell E-Discovery Platform offer a very compelling e-discovery solution,” said Kelly Inglese, senior director of litigation support services at McCarthy Tétrault. “Clearwell’s advanced capabilities such as auto-filters, discussion threads and file analysis make it easy to understand case facts in context, rapidly eliminate irrelevant data and save significant review time.”

“After carefully evaluating several e-discovery software solutions, we chose the Clearwell E-Discovery Platform because it is the first product that allows for the intelligent and interactive analysis of electronic data,” said William Platt, managing partner with Platinum Legal Group, Inc. “With Clearwell, the legal team and client now have a unique capability to interact with case data much earlier in the process, deriving important evidence to develop case strategies based on facts.”
