AI‑Driven E‑Discovery Powered by Relativity aiR
ESDS utilizes RelativityOne, the global leader in e-discovery technology, as its end-to-end platform. By leveraging Relativity aiR, Relativity’s advanced generative AI suite, ESDS compresses discovery timelines while maintaining transparency and defensibility.
Expedited Document Review
Relativity aiR enables ESDS to complete large‑scale document reviews in days rather than months. AI‑assisted workflows make it possible to review hundreds of thousands of documents in a fraction of the time required by traditional manual models.
Significant Cost Savings
Increased speed leads directly to lower review costs. AI‑driven first‑pass review has helped clients realize cost reductions of up to 85 percent.
Accuracy with Attorney Oversight
Relativity aiR is deployed as part of a hybrid review model that keeps attorneys involved at every stage. This approach achieves more than 90 percent accuracy in identifying relevant documents while ensuring attorney judgment remains central to defensibility.
Privilege Review and Protection
Relativity aiR for Privilege transforms this high-risk stage of discovery into a streamlined, defensible process. By automating context building and draft privilege log descriptions through AI-driven predictions, ESDS delivers QC-ready categorizations that significantly reduce manual effort and risk.
Discovery Counsel
Beyond technical execution, Eimer Stahl attorneys provide discovery counsel support for complex matters, including the development of ESI and technology‑assisted review (TAR) protocols, coordination of document production workflows, and guidance on advanced search methodologies. ESDS also advises on discovery compliance and best practices, helping to ensure that every phase of the process is legally sound and trial ready.
A Legacy of Innovation
A pioneer in legal technology, Eimer Stahl was among the first law firms in the United States to recognize the value of applying conceptual and predictive analytics to large-scale document reviews. The firm gained national renown by negotiating one of the earliest e-discovery orders for the use of predictive coding in litigation (Edwards v. National Milk Producers Federation), and it is once again at the forefront of the AI-review revolution.
ESDS is led by Jen Polzer, who brings nearly two decades of experience in e-discovery project management. Jen focuses on reducing the costs and risks of discovery, optimizing advanced technology use, and providing strategic guidance throughout the EDRM lifecycle.
