Case Studies

A global transportation company was under investigation for possible infractions of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) in India. The company’s legal counsel needed to quickly produce responsive documents and find key documents to prepare their defense. Key Results 4M total documents reduced to 250K through 2 rounds of responsive review, with precision rate and recall of 85% or higher. 810 key documents quickly delivered to outside counsel, saving them hours of review and gaining more time for case strategy. A Complex Dataset Requiring Nuanced Approaches The company collected 2M documents from executives in India and the U.S. Information in the documents was extremely sensitive, making it critical to produce only those documents related to the India market. This would be impossible for most TAR tools, which use machine learning and therefore can’t reliably differentiate between conversations about the company’s business in India from discussions solely pertaining to U.S. business. Finding key documents to prepare a defense was challenging as well. The company wanted to learn whether vendors and other third parties had bribed officials in violation of the FCPA, but references to any such violations were sure to be obscure rather than overt. Zeroing In On the Right Conversations Lighthouse used a hybrid approach, supplementing machine learning models with powerful linguistic modeling. First, our linguistic experts created a model to remove documents that merely referred to India but didn’t pertain to business in that market, so that the machine learning TAR wouldn’t pull them into the responsive set. Then our responsive review team developed geographic filters based on documents confirmed as India-specific and used those filters to train the machine learning model. The TAR model created an initial responsive set, which our linguists refined even further with an additional model, based on nuances of English used in communications across different regions of India. By the end, our hybrid approach had reduced the corpus by 97%, with an 87% precision rate and 85% recall. Once this first phase of review was successfully completed, Lighthouse dove into an additional 2M documents collected from custodians located in India. Finding Key Documents Among Obfuscated Communications To help inform a defense, our search specialists focused on language that bad actors outside the company might have used to obfuscate bribery. The team used advanced search techniques to examine how often, and in what context, certain verb-noun pairs indicating an “exchange” were used (for instance, commonly used innocent pairings like give a hand vs. rarer pairs like give reward). The team could then focus on the documents containing language indicating an attempt to conceal or infer. $1.7M Saved, 810 Key Documents Found to Support Defense Lighthouse performed responsive review on two datasets of 2M documents each, reducing them to less than 250K and saving the client more than $1.7M. Out of the 237K responsive documents, Lighthouse uncovered 810 hot docs spanning 7 themes of interest. The work was complete in just 3 weeks and enabled outside counsel to provide the best defense to the underlying company.

In-house legal and compliance teams use Lighthouse Spectra, a cloud-based, self-service legal technology platform, to achieve a more efficient and scalable approach to compliance monitoring. Our self-service technology keeps clients well ahead of audits and compliance risks, while lowering the costs and inefficiencies inherent to compliance monitoring, particularly for companies working in heavily regulated industries. Clients avoid the processing fees and wait times that burden compliance reviews by quickly and easily loading their own data. Then, they leverage industry leading technology to create repeatable, scalable compliance workflows that quickly cull out irrelevant data and uncover key information. The results are lower risk, faster results, and unprecedented savings. Repeatable and Effective Self-Service Compliance Investigation Workflow Below, we’ve detailed a sample self-service compliance workflow—including real results that our clients have achieved at each step during internal investigations. Similar workflows have been used by our clients to deliver up to 96% reduction in document review and over $800K in savings across a single investigation. Step 1: Automated Data Upload, Processing, and Deduplication What it does : Reduces administration time, speeds up investigation setup, reduces hosting costs, reduces review population by removing duplicates Lighthouse self-service automation features reduce the manual set up tasks that often delay the start of an investigation (data import, processing, etc.). Clients can leverage Lighthouse’s native file managing technology at this point to significantly reduce hosting costs—by only loading native files if or when they’re necessary to the investigation. Once data is uploaded and processed, clients can deploy Lighthouse deduplication technology to immediately remove redundant data. Results : Enabled an investigation team to start analysis one week earlier than standard processing; reduced data population by 25%. Step 2: ECA Culling and Search Term Iteration What it does : Reduces review populations by removing irrelevant documents Once processed and deduplicated, clients use our customized culling and search term iteration processes to swiftly narrow the scope of documents for review. Results : Reduced review population of an internal investigation by over 78%. Step 3: Thread Suppression and Proprietary Review Technology What it does : Reduces review populations by identifying the most unique documents Clients can then implement customized workflows that combine email thread suppression with Lighthouse review technology to identify the most unique documents. Results : Reduced review population of an internal investigation by over 50%. Step 4: Lighthouse TAR and Advanced Analytics What it does : Finds the key documents that matter to investigations. After the culling process, clients often deploy Lighthouse’s Continuous Active Learning TAR workflows to find relevant documents. Once reaching a point of diminishing returns, advanced analytics such as clustering, categorization, and concept searches can be deployed to ensure that no relevant documents were left behind. Results : Reduced review population of an internal investigation by over 60%.

A healthcare provider needed help simplifying ESI hosting for a complex series of 14 related matters across 9 states (and growing). Lighthouse went above and beyond—providing a unified workflow from hosting to review. Key Actions Quickly migrated 11M documents from existing Relativity and non-Relativity databases into a single repository, supported by AI Created one sophisticated workflow—from ESI storage to managed review—for over 14 matters across 9 states (and any other matters that arise in the future) Leveraged advanced technology to facilitate data re-use, data reduction, and review efficiency ‍ Key Results Avoided duplicate collections, hosting, and review of 1.2M documents Instantaneously provided production sets to all 14 matters, giving local counsel time to focus on unique matter documents before production Set case teams up for success in future matters with a readymade data repository, workflow, and trained review team—exponentially increasing the client’s ROI Data Everywhere and No One to Turn To A large healthcare provider was facing a growing number of separate but related litigations. With 14 ongoing matters in 9 different jurisdictions, the company’s data was spread out across multiple ESI vendors and a variety of review databases. The hosting costs of this data sprawl was threatening to explode the company’s overall budget. And with each case team and vendor taking their own approach to case strategy and review, in-house counsel was busy herding cats rather than managing overall litigation strategy. They came to Lighthouse desperately seeking a way to consolidate their overall eDiscovery approach to these matters. A Streamlined Solution for Multiple Matters, from Hosting Through Review Lighthouse seamlessly integrating all related matters into an advanced document repository. Backed by AI, this repository connected insights across matters and maximized work product reuse. Using this repository as a base, our experts built a sophisticated eDiscovery workflow for all 14 individual matters. Each process in every individual matter—from hosting to document review—was purposefully designed around insights and data from all other related matters. The result of this holistic approach was more efficient, consistent, and accurate eDiscovery across every matter—at a much lower cost than could ever have been achieved with a traditional siloed approach. Here’s how we did it: Faster, More Versatile Migration Capabilities With our advanced technology and unique migration expertise, Lighthouse quickly migrated 11M documents from existing databases—including Relativity and non-Relativity—into an advanced AI-backed document repository. At the outset, the team worked closely with the client to understand the scope, types of data, and future needs, so that the migration flowed quickly and efficiently. This approach meant that the client only had to process data once, rather than paying for processing and re-processing data with every matter. Individual case teams also immediately reaped the benefit of data and insights from every related matter, including matters that had already been successfully litigated. This helped counsel anticipate issues in their own matters, while re-using review work product for greater efficiency and consistency—ultimately saving costs and improving matter outcomes. One Hash for Unprecedented Cross-Matter Deduplication and Efficiency Unlike other data storage repositories, the Lighthouse AI-backed repository adds a hash system unique to Lighthouse. This technology normalizes documents before adding a hash value, extending our deduplication power and allowing us to identify all duplicate documents beyond what is possible using traditional deduplication technology. Our unique AI hash system also enabled faster insights into opposing party productions. The Lighthouse team used the system to compare newly received productions in one matter against documents previously received in other matters. Where matches were found, any issue coding one case team applied to a document was carried over and applied to new matching documents. This helped facilitate case team collaboration and a consistent legal strategy across matters. Broad Bench of Data Experts Rather than paying separate vendors for expertise in individual matters, in-house counsel and local case teams leaned on Lighthouse’s unified bench of subject matter experts—including ESI processing and hosting, advanced analytics, and review specialists. These experts worked together as a dedicated client service team, providing a uniquely holistic view of the entire array of related matters. However, individual specialists tagged in to perform work only when their expertise was needed, ensuring that the company didn’t rack up expensive invoices for consulting services they didn’t need or use. When our experts were called in to help, they were able to identify areas for greater efficiency and cross-matter consistency that would have been impossible if the client had remained with a siloed approach to each matter. For example, before review began, Lighthouse review experts counseled individual case to teams to implement a coding layout for each jurisdiction that facilitated work product reuse and consistency across matters. As new related matters come up, our experts will bring their deep institutional knowledge to continue to drive these types of unique efficiency and consistency gains. A Strategic Approach Leads to Faster Reviews and Productions Once data was migrated into the document repository, Lighthouse review experts designed one strategic review plan for all 14 matters that lowered costs and maximized data reuse and cross-matter insights. As part of this plan, Lighthouse created one national review database and separate jurisdiction-specific review databases. Then, Lighthouse experts used advanced AI and review technology to isolate a core set of 150K documents within the 11M documents housed in the repository that were most likely to be responsive across all jurisdictions. This core set was published to the national review database and fully reviewed by an experienced Lighthouse review team trained by our review managers to categorize each document for both national and jurisdictional responsiveness. After review, Lighthouse copied this strategic production set to each jurisdictional database. This approach kept hosting costs drastically lower for each individual matter, while providing all local case teams with an immediate first production, well ahead of production deadlines.

Lighthouse goes beyond linear review to help a global technology company make its case to the IRS. Key Actions Targeting critical case documents with Key Document Identification rather than performing linear review on the whole document set. Identifying key events that took place within specific hours, by applying advanced linguistic modelling to overcome challenges presented by multiple time zones and different time stamp formats within email traffic. Key Results 1.5 million total documents reduced to roughly 37,500. Results in 100-500% less time and at 90-240% lower cost than linear review. Building a Case for Tax-Exempt Lunches A global technology company was facing IRS scrutiny over the complementary lunches the company provided to staff. Full-time workers were comped the meals because, the company claimed, staff were required to respond to emergencies during lunch hours. The IRS was dubious of that claim and inclined to consider the lunches a taxable benefit. To prevent the meals from being taxed, the company needed to demonstrate to the IRS that, over a two-year period, at least 50% of employees at its San Francisco office had in fact responded to an emergency between the hours of 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. local time. For evidence, the company had 1.5 million documents—mostly emails—pertaining to about 1,000 employees. The company reached out to Lighthouse for help finding the best case-building documents within those 1.5 million. Lighthouse offered its Key Document Identification service. Rather than prioritize documents for linear review, the Lighthouse team promised to identify the most valuable and evidential documents—and do so in less time and at a lower cost. Hacking Through the Haystack The Lighthouse team eliminated less-valuable documents in stages. First, they used an advanced algorithm to remove junk and duplicative documents, reducing the document set to 943,000 (a 38% reduction). Among those, the team targeted San Francisco employee names and emails, which brought the total down to 484,000 (an additional 49% reduction). From here, the team employed nuanced, multi-layered linguistic search techniques to zero in on the most necessary and informative documents. Along the way, Lighthouse encountered a number of challenges that would have thwarted other search tools and teams. One of these was the knot of different time stamps attached to emails: the last in time email in every thread was converted to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), while every previous email in the thread was stamped according to the local time zone of the sender. The Lighthouse team circumvented this by searching the emails’ metadata, which converted all times to UTC. Using this metadata, the team was able to search using a single timeframe (6 to 9 p.m. UTC, corresponding with 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Pacific). Another challenge was looping together all emails stemming from the same incident, so that Lighthouse could provide the company with a complete account of each emergency response (and avoid counting a given emergency more than once). The team did this by flagging one email tied to a specific emergency and using proprietary threading technology to propagate that flagging to all other emails associated with that emergency. Finally, the Lighthouse team had to classify documents by level of emergency, to help the company build the strongest case. The emergency level of some documents was already classified, thanks to a system installed by the company toward the end of the two years under investigation. But for the majority of documents, it was unknown. Lighthouse was able to classify them using advanced search features of proprietary technology, which identified key terms like “time-sensitive” and other ways emergencies were referenced in the document population. Major Savings and Critical Insights In only two weeks, a two-person team delivered on Lighthouse’s promise to help the company gather evidence, shrink the document population, and save time and money. Had the company tried to build a case with linear review instead, it would have taken up to 5 times longer and cost up to twice as much. Of the 1.5 million total documents, Lighthouse escalated approximately 37,500 (2.5% of the original dataset). To help with case building, the team sorted documents into three tiers of descending priority: employees responding to high-level emergencies during the lunch hour, employees responding to any level of emergency during the lunch hour, and employees responding to high-level emergencies at any time in the day. The Lighthouse team also normalized the metadata for all documents to make it easy for company counsel to see which employees were involved in each document and thread. Across the three tiers: 78% of San Francisco employees were tied to at least one document 74% were tied to at least one non-propagated document (i.e., an email associated with a unique emergency) 68% were the sender of at least one non-propagated document This strongly suggested that more than 50% of employees actively responded to emergencies in the target timeframe and helped counsel hit the ground running in collecting the facts to prove it.

A large healthcare provider faced a series of related matters requiring document review. Lighthouse designed and executed a single review workflow that provided accurate, consistent, and efficient productions. Lighthouse Managed Review Results Efficient, compliant productions across 14 matters in 9 states (and counting) Nuanced document review performed by one experienced review team, eliminating the need to train multiple review teams Case teams avoided re-reviewing 150K core documents by reusing 100K high-quality review decisions and redactions A Perfect Storm of Review Complexities A large healthcare provider was facing 14 related matters across 9 states. The initial corpus of documents numbered 11M, with each jurisdiction adding more. While each matter shared a core set of relevant issues, they all had their own unique relevancy scope and were being handled by different outside counsel and eDiscovery teams. The corpus was also littered with personally identifiable information (PII) that required identification and redaction by review teams before production. Combining Expertise and Tech to Drive Efficiency The company turned to Lighthouse because of our extensive experience working on complex document review. Our review managers developed a sophisticated workflow to reduce the number of documents requiring review and re-review across jurisdictions by leveraging advanced technology. Custom Workflow Enables Work Product Reuse To lower costs and maximize consistency across matters, Lighthouse created an overall document repository and review database, as well as separate jurisdictional databases. The team migrated all 11M documents into the document repository and used advanced AI and review technology to isolate a core set of documents that were most likely to be responsive across all jurisdictions. Our review managers efficiently worked with all outside counsel teams to validate this core set. They also suggested and implemented a coding layout for each jurisdiction to facilitate work product reuse and consistency across matters. One Skilled Review Team and Review Process for All Matters Our combination of managed review, advanced technology, and custom data re-use workflow resulted in a single document set that met all jurisdiction-specific production requirements. These documents were duplicated across all databases for immediate production in multiple matters. To get to this caliber of review, our review managers used technology to reduce the number of documents needing eyes-on review to 90K and trained an experienced review team on both universal and jurisdictional responsiveness. Technology was also used to expedite PII redaction and propagate coding to the core set of 150K documents. Unprecedented Review Time and Cost Savings With Lighthouse’s review approach, each case team had more freedom in how they structured their post-production workflows. Our approach also provided stricter control of data and enabled more accurate and predictable billing for the client. Further, all 14 matters now had an initial production ready at the push of a button. In addition to lowering costs, this gave local counsel additional time to assess case strategy, with the first production available in advance of agreed-upon deadlines. Instantaneous Initial Production for Multiple Matters Beyond the stellar review outcomes achieved across each matter, Lighthouse’s strategic workflow and use of technology also saved the client an impressive $650K—a delightful surprise to the client, who was prepared to pay more for such a complex litigation series. As new related matters arise, the client can engage a trained and experienced review team ready to hit the ground running.

Lighthouse bridges internal gaps during technology overhaul and solves longstanding compliance issues for a German multinational healthcare manufacturer. Key Actions Lighthouse engaged company stakeholders in operational planning and received funding from Microsoft to devise and integrate a premium Microsoft 365 (M365) add-on to existing Purview Premium eDiscovery, which resolved an outstanding compliance need. Key Results The proof-of-concept achieved a zero-trust security model integrated with third-party software, and satisfied the barring of critical needs for the Company that centralized IT and legal departments after years of dysfunction. What They Needed Automating a transition to M365 commonly yields a clash between IT, legal, and compliance stakeholders if the decision to convert was spearheaded by IT and made without consulting legal and compliance teams. Typically, during planning or implementation of converting to M365, legal teams ask IT how the new platform will manage compliant and defensible processes, and if IT doesn’t have the answers, the project stalls. This was the situation facing a multinational manufacturing Company that engaged Lighthouse for help during the spring of 2020. At that time, the Company was several years into its M365 transition, and the legal teams’ requirements for adoption of native M365 compliance tools barred a complete transition. Pressure to adopt the tools escalated as M365 workloads for content creation, collaboration, and communication were already rolled out, creating an increasingly large and complex volume of data with significant degrees of risk. Lighthouse Responds to Need and Launches New Technology In partnership with Microsoft Consulting Services, Lighthouse organized a companywide M365 “reset,” hosting a three-day workshop to revamp the transition process and generate an official statement of work. The strategic goal was to streamline the stakeholders from litigation, technical infrastructure, cybersecurity, and forensics teams that previously failed to align. The workshop fielded critical topics geared to encourage constructive discussions between stakeholders and to strengthen departmental trust. The outcome of these discussions eventually enabled the company to move forward with critical compliance updates, including the collection and parsing of Microsoft Teams data, and the management of myriad files and email attachments. Lighthouse took stock of the current state, testing potential solutions, and arrived at a proof-of-concept for an eDiscovery Automation Solution (EAS) that augmented existing M365 capabilities to meet the legal team’s security requirements and remediate any performance gaps. Microsoft recognized the potential value of the EAS for the wider market, ultimately leading to Microsoft funding for the proof-of-concept. Inside the eDiscovery Automation Solution (EAS) Technology Azure-native web application designed to orchestrate the eDiscovery operations of an M365 subscriber through Purview Premium eDiscovery automation Maximized Microsoft Graph API “/Compliance/eDiscovery/” functions and other Microsoft API Simplified to Azure AD trust boundary, targeting the M365 tenant hosted within, and enabling full governance of identity and entitlement throughout Azure and M365 security features Benefits Achieved a zero-trust security model Authorized high-velocity, high-volume eDiscovery tasks without outside technology through automation and orchestration of existing M365 eDiscovery premium capabilities native to M365 Mobilized integration with third-party software included in the Company’s eDiscovery workflows Amplified workload visibility by automatically surfacing relevant Mailboxes, OneDrives, and other M365 group-based technologies dependent upon selected Custodians’ access Corporate Case Studybig-data; case-study; cloud-migration; cloud; cloud-services; cloud-security; corporate; corporation; data-privacy; emerging-data-sources; information-governance; ediscovery; microsoft; manufacturing-industry; risk-managementchat-and-collaboration-data; ediscovery-review; microsoft-365; data-privacy; information-governance; client-success; lighting-the-path-to-better-information-governanceBig-Data, Case-Study, Cloud-Migration, cloud, Cloud-Services, Cloud-Security, Corporate, Corporation, Data-Privacy, Emerging-Data-Sources, Information-Governance, eDiscovery, microsoft, manufacturing-industry, risk-management, chat-and-collaboration-data, ediscovery-review, microsoft-365, data-privacy, information-governance

Lighthouse helps global British bank resolve critical risks during a major technology overhaul. Key Actions Microsoft referred Company to Lighthouse to address eDiscovery needs within Microsoft 365 (M365) Lighthouse assembled a team whose members had former expertise gained from stakeholder departments that were affected by the unresolved needs Key Results Compliance risks were successfully remediated using native M365 tools The Company used its new platform to avoid the need for add-on services or vendors What They Needed M365 Implementation Yields Data Risk Management As one of the nation’s largest financial institutions, the Company’s move to M365 required exceptional time and care—further complicating compliance requirements for record-keeping, data protection, and regulated conduct, and ultimately placing demands on M365 that created uncertainty of whether the platform could be resolved. The complex compliance requirements fueled an internal audit, revealing several risks related to the Company’s management of unstructured data, including its practices for retention, deletion, preservation, and protection of sensitive information. The Company asked Microsoft for help—and Microsoft referred the Company to Lighthouse. Tight Deadlines, Exceptional Solutions Lighthouse was tasked to explore whether M365’s native information governance (IG) and eDiscovery tools could address the risks identified in the audit. The team launched a series of workshops, interviews, and research tasks to: Educate stakeholders about M365’s native capabilities for records and information management (RIM) and IG Define stakeholders’ needs and current workflows regarding RIM and IG Analyze gaps in the current state Test and propose new workflows using native M365 tools Executives intensely monitored this project, as every identified risk was critical, so the pressure on the teams’ proposed workflows was tremendous—not to mention a tight 12-week timeline. Lighthouse prevailed, fielding a team of experienced peers with the Company stakeholders. Every business group—from records management to IT that were responsible for remediating risks—was paired with a Lighthouse consultant who had previously filled a similar role at a comparable institution. Our experts gained rapid credibility with each stakeholder group, and they ultimately accomplished a unified solution that was acceptable to all parties. Our solution succeeded in remediating all flagged risks using RIM and IG workflows within M365. It required the Company to upgrade its M365 licensing agreement from E3 to E5, but the company agreed that the added cost was more than worth it. In the end, Lighthouse achieved two key wins: 1) demonstrating to the Company that M365 could meet even the most stringent security and compliance needs, and 2) securing a new trusted partnership with the customer that has continued to develop. ‍ Corporate Case Studycase-study; big-data; cloud-migration; cloud; cloud-services; corporate; corporation; emerging-data-sources; information-governance; ediscovery; microsoft; legacy-data-remediation; risk-management; record-management; financial-services-industrymicrosoft-365; information-governance; client-success; lighting-the-path-to-better-information-governanceCase-Study, client-success, Big-Data, Cloud-Migration, cloud, Cloud-Services, Corporate, Corporation, Emerging-Data-Sources, Information-Governance, eDiscovery, microsoft, Legacy-Data-Remediation, microsoft, risk-management, Record-Management, financial-services-industry, microsoft-365, information-governance

A global pharmaceutical company leverages Lighthouse's AI-powered analytics to reduce legal spending, increase efficiency, and decrease risk in their matters. Driving Value on Individual Matters The pharmaceutical company first came to Lighthouse for better, faster review for a single matter. Leveraging our unparalleled range of advanced analytics accelerators, our experienced review managers and expert consultants created a custom review workflow that significantly reduced data volume, expedited review, and increased the accuracy of data classification. Individual Matter Review Workflow and Metrics Driving Value Across All Matters Based on the results from the first matter and Lighthouse’s ability to attain even more review efficiency by connecting matters, the company sent additional matters to Lighthouse. Applying advanced AI across the company’s matters resulted in deeper matter insights and upleveled the accuracy of classification models in ways that that would be impossible on one single matter. As each new matter is added, Lighthouse AI identifies data that overlaps with past and concurrent matters. This has two impacts at the outset: 1) significant processing cost savings and unprecedented 2) early insights into new matters. These insights empower counsel to make more strategic, data-backed decisions from the start, leading to extraordinary downstream efficiencies and significantly reduced risk. For example, across five currently connected matters for the company, Lighthouse AI showed that: “Outside Counsel A” email domains were coded privileged over 95% of the time. Emails with a government email domain on the communication were coded privilege 15% of the time. 20K documents of Custodian B were collected and processed across multiple matters, but only 10 documents were ever actually reviewed. Custodian C’s documents were reviewed and produced across multiple matters, with a 0% privilege rate. Lighthouse AI-powered insights and connections supercharge the efficiency, accuracy, and consistency for each subsequent matter. Past attorney work product and metadata are used to reduce the need for eyes-on review and improve the consistency and accuracy of review for responsiveness, privilege, PII, confidentiality, redactions, and more. Driving Value into The Future The efficiency and risk mitigation benefits continue to grow for the pharmaceutical company with each new matter. A true big data technology, the more data Lighthouse advanced analytics ingests, the deeper and more nuanced its decision-making and insights become. Opportunities for data and attorney work product re-use will also grow with each new matter ingested, amplifying the company’s ROI into the future.
