When a Fortune 500 CPG company faced a second request tied to a business divestiture, its Am Law 200 counsel partnered with Lighthouse to manage the heavy data lift of 4.6M docs. With tight deadlines, shifting custodians, and complex privilege concerns, the stakes were high—and consistency was critical.

The Challenge

  • Volatile TAR populations and changing custodian scopes
  • Compressed timelines typical of second requests
  • High data volume across diverse file types including video and image

The Solution

Lighthouse deployed a suite of AI-powered tools to keep the matter on track:

  • AI-driven TAR and privilege/PII detection to streamline review
  • Generative AI + transcription tech enabled fast image/video analysis
  • Modular workflows allowed rapid pivots as scope evolved

The Result

The AI-led approach let attorneys focus on strategy while Lighthouse handled operational complexity—proving the power of collaborative, AI-enabled review. The matter was completed on time and to the satisfaction of all parties involved. The legal team met their regulatory deadlines, and the CPG client was well-positioned for the next stages of its divestiture.

Why It Matters

This engagement shows how scalable AI, smart workflows, and strong partnerships can turn regulatory chaos into consistent, repeatable success.
