Manpower Law Registry Secures Skilled Legal Team that Exceeded Client Expectations / Saved Thousands of Dollars

Manpower Law Registry successfully gathered a team of 10 attorneys and seven paralegals to review more than four million documents for a local law firm. The formidable job was completed in five weeks, saving the firm’s client more than $200,000.

THE CHALLENGE

A Missouri law firm, hired by a national law firm for a document review in Missouri, was in need of a local team of legal experts to supplement its professional staff to provide services for a New York corporate client who was acquiring a Missouri company. The Missouri firm, which could not devote enough paralegals and attorneys during this particular time period, needed assistance in reviewing more than four million documents requested by the Department of Justice. The firm was seeking a cost-effective team willing to work long hours, including a holiday weekend, to complete the job.

THE SOLUTION

Within days of the request, Manpower Law Registry (MKL) assembled a team of 10 attorneys and seven paralegals with experience in document review and anti-trust issues. The national counsel for the case provided a partner, several junior associates and a paralegal case manager to assist the team. The team worked tirelessly to gather and review scores of documents within the allotted timeframe.

THE RESULT

MKL was successful in selecting a solid team that exceeded the expectations of the law firm. The team completed the job in five weeks, well ahead of the deadline and with cost savings to the firm’s corporate client that exceeded $200,000. MKL was able to fully assess the needs of the project and work closely with the Missouri firm to provide a knowledgeable team of attorneys and paralegals, saving the firm the hassle and expense of having to source its own temporary attorneys and paralegals. MKL was able to deliver administrative savings as well, billing the firm’s corporate client directly.

The law firm was so pleased with the performance of this team and confident in its capabilities that several members were selected to travel to New York to assist with the document review at the corporate client’s New York headquarters.
