Since the early 2000’s, the percentage of information that
is created and stored in paper form has decreased dramatically. Today, 95% of all information is created and
stored electronically. In 2006, Congress
responded to this new reality by approving significant changes to the Federal
Rules of Civil Procedure addressing Electronically Stored Information, now
commonly referred to as ESI. Last year,
the federal rules were amended again as the complexity of ESI was more fully
realized and the body of case law continued to grow.
At Procopio, we understand that ESI and discovery of the
same (e-discovery) are critical components of the litigation process, which is
why we offer comprehensive in-house ESI services that are both cost effective
and time efficient. Procopio hosts client data in-house at a rate of 30-60%
LESS than the costs of most outside vendors. We pass those savings along
directly to our clients. We utilize the industry’s most modern and robust
technology tools for collection, processing, review, production and organizing
electronic information.
Secure, Cost-Effective Services
Your privacy and security are our priority. While most firms employ outside vendors to
collect and store your information, Procopio has made significant investments
in software, hardware and personnel to all but eliminate the need for outside
vendors. This equates to increased
security and significant cost savings to our clients. While the vendor-based ESI business has
become a multi-billion dollar industry, we strongly believe the e-discovery
budget should not drive the litigation.
Our Model
Collect and Preserve.
We assist our clients in collecting and preserving their electronic
information to stay compliant with state and federal rules and case law
governing how, when and what information must be preserved and produced.

ensures that the client’s responsive, non-privileged data is produced in the
proper format and in a timely matter during the course of litigation.
Filter, Review and Analysis.
We use advanced tools and analytics to help cull down large amounts of
data and find the critical pieces of information that help shape the success of
the litigation process.
Presentation. We
combine the necessary skill, experience and tools to assist attorneys in
presenting evidence to the trier of fact.
