Key Actions
- Lighthouse collected and processed documents from 10 custodians (9 individual and 1 corporate). After initial data reduction, the review population was 640K documents.
- When outside counsel search terms yielded a review population of 310K, counsel turned to Lighthouse to further tune the terms.
- Lighthouse linguists met with counsel to understand the subject matter. Then, they employed strategic search term testing and optimization methods to propose a new set of terms that reduced over- and under-capture (including RFP-to-search comparison analysis and linguistic-based search term and variant testing).
