As a fully featured, web-based e-discovery platform, Relativity allows users to create and automate custom workflows, take advantage of a complete set of text analytics capabilities including computer-assisted review, and make use of fully integrated processing capabilities—so case teams can ingest data and begin review quickly without leaving the system.

"Relativity is easy to integrate into our current workflow," said Sarah Millar, head of the discovery management group and an associate of litigation at Osler. "We're excited to take a leap forward and expand our service offering with Relativity Analytics and Assisted Review."

"The legal industry has evolved, and we wanted to take advantage of more advanced processing and analytics tools to enhance our services to our clients," said Michael Stephens, a senior business manager at Osler. "We're bringing in Relativity so we can continue to deliver cost-effective and efficient services to our clients in today's changing market."
