Proven Success for High-Priority Case Types
Litigation: Identify relevant documents faster and more accurately, reducing the time and cost of review.
Class Action: Surface common issues and patterns across documents to handle multiple plaintiffs and similar claims.
Multi-District Litigation: Streamline review for large volumes of documents from multiple sources and jurisdictions.
Breach of Contract: Incorporate key contract terms and clauses into the review process to highlight relevant breaches.
Internal Investigations: Use linguistic analysis to identify violations specific to company policies and industry regulations and detect potential fraud or misconduct.
Government Investigations: Reduce the risk of non-compliance with specialized review demands.
Civil Investigative Demand (CID): Demonstrate responsiveness to often-broad terms of CID requests while managing the resulting large volume of documents efficiently.
The Power of Linguistics
The complexity of human language defies simplistic attempts to quantify it. That’s why we use advanced linguistics to enhance review.
Quantitative linguistics in the legal field enables us to objectively study language using probability and statistics to analyze word frequency, syntax, sentiment, and other characteristics. Thanks to the experts on our team, we can apply these tools to identify patterns and trends across large volumes of data.
Whether finding near-duplicate documents, uncovering relevant keywords, putting conversations in context, or classifying documents, we make the science of language an asset to your legal team.
How We Achieve Unbeatable Accuracy
Minimizing the document set is essential to high-quality review. The fewer documents counsel has to examine, the more time and creative thinking they can invest in nuanced analysis.
Looking at past results, we can confidently state that Lighthouse linguistic responsive review routinely achieves actual recall and precision rates of 80 percent or higher—far better than typical outcomes using human reviewers alone or even common TAR approaches. Our unique combination of expertise, linguistics, and data science allows us to improve precision without sacrificing completeness or defensibility.
And we often deliver results that exceed this high bar. For example, one global technology client with an extensive government investigation used Lighthouse linguistic responsive review to identify 1 million responsive documents out of 19 million with 81% precision and 89% recall—and did it in just ten weeks. This fast and accurate production helped the corporation reach a successful outcome with regulators.
