EED Expands East Coast Operations Meeting Overwhelming Client Demand
for Local Processing
Announces Opening of Full-Service Washington D.C. Operations Center
October 2, 2006, Washington D.C. — Following three years of exceptional company growth, Electronic Evidence Discovery, Inc., the full-service electronic discovery leader, today announced the opening of its new operations center in Washington D.C. Staffed with project management and client services personnel, EED's center is designed to support the region's rapidly growing demand for comprehensive electronic data processing and conversion services.
“The clear message from our clients in Washington D.C. has been a desire to have local access to EED processing capabilities and client services,” said Jose Lebron, Vice President of Sales for EED's Eastern Region. “Our clients in this area have made a significant contribution to the success of the Eastern Region and we believe it is critical to support our loyal clientele by bringing EED to them.”
Over the past 6 months EED has spent millions of dollars in infrastructure upgrades resulting in higher performance metrics for EED hosted services, increased storage capacity, and improved backup/recover capabilities across a fully redundant multi-tiered fibre network backbone. Driven by continued explosive growth in the eDiscovery market segment, these investments have positioned EED to exceed client expectations for data processing capacity and hosted native review services.
“The expansion of our Washington D.C. office reflects EED's charter to keep pace with the rapidly evolving needs of litigators,” said EED's Chief Operating Officer Regina Chepalis. “Last year the company experienced a revenue increase of more than 65% and a 51% increase in head count. EED will continue to bring local services into other key legal markets in order to provide the highest level of client service.”
EED has seen significant growth in the number of new clients as well as an increase in cases from existing clients. The company currently provides eDiscovery services to many of the nation's top law firms as well as a growing number of corporations.
“The eDiscovery process has rapidly become a critical component of nearly all litigation today, and its importance continues to expand,” said Michael Jimmerson, Director of Litigation Support at Mayer, Brown, Rowe and Maw. “It is no longer a peripheral issue; it could potentially mean the difference between winning and losing your case. It is incumbent upon any major law firm to partner with an electronic discovery provider that offers time-tested full service capabilities in order to provide the best possible service to its clients.”
