UnitedLex, a legal consulting, technology, and outsourcing services provider, has announced a strategic alliance with Huron Consulting Group, a provider of financial and operational consulting services. The alliance allows both companies to deliver high-quality, multi-shore litigation document review services to clients facing complex commercial, intellectual property, product liability, and antitrust litigation.

Through this alliance, the multi-shore combination of Huron’s approximately 1,000 seats in the United States with UnitedLex's 600 seats in its Indian centers will create one of the world’s largest integrated document review solutions capable of cost-effectively addressing the requirements of Fortune 500 companies and AmLaw 200 law firms.

Under this business arrangement, technology and process consultants from Huron’s Document Review group, together with personnel from Huron’s e-Discovery group, will work closely with UnitedLex to offer a unique, fully scalable document review solution to companies worldwide. UnitedLex has dedicated a team of attorneys, project managers, and Six Sigma certified quality managers to deliver document review solutions to Huron’s customers who opt for the multi-shore solution.

As part of the solution, UnitedLex and Huron have jointly implemented a program, under which quality specialists from both companies closely assess each project’s effectiveness and efficiency criteria in the context of training the attorney teams, and provide real-time performance measurement and feedback to clients as part of this collaborative project management.
