Document review requires a review of a large chunk of documents, which obviously are not organized. Simple indexing of documents can take up hundreds of valuable billing hours for your staff. Most of the time, even with the use of electronic document review platforms there is a possibility of missing out on important information related to the case, due to the sheer volume of the documents.

Every document which has to be reviewed should be done strictly adhering to the guidelines. The review guidelines form the base for the consistent document review which includes complete and sufficient details to serve as a reference. The guidelines should consist of a summary of basic instructions, sample documents, tagging instructions with details and specifications, names of concerned parties and/or attorneys, contact details of the project manager, etc. However, the guidelines have to be flexible enough to introduce new instructions to it if required.
