A large plaintiff's firm needed 22 document review attorneys for a multi-million dollar class action matter within 24-48 hours. The firm was up against a discovery deadline and needed to review approximately one million pages of documents. Davidson Attorneys provided 12 attorneys within 24 hours, and another 10 within 48 hours. All of our attorneys on the project had experience either in document review or had impressive backgrounds in various areas of law. Our team of attorneys reviewed the documents for relevance and saved the firm thousands of dollars in expert fees. When the case settled, our attorneys were able to wrap up the project and move on without disrupting the firm.
Davidson Attorneys has successfully placed several long-term paralegals at the in-house law department of a major international auto manufacturer and financial services subsidiary since 2005. All of our long-term contractors have held their engagements with the highest reviews, and three of them have since held their assignments for over two years. We are frequently called upon by this high-profile Fortune 500 Company as a primary resource for experienced contractors to supplement their work force on an as-needed basis. We've saved legal departments thousands of dollars compared to the hourly cost of hiring outside counsel.
Prior to working with Davidson Attorneys, this firm's philosophy was not to use contract attorneys. This changed when the firm received a case that required a team of attorneys who were fluent in Japanese to work on a patent infringement case. Davidson Attorneys successfully located a team of six experienced contract attorneys to work on the review within a 24-hour time period. Davidson Attorneys was able to provide a team of individuals that worked from their homes, saving the firm a tremendous amount in overhead, space, and administrative costs.
A Japanese pharmaceutical company, the world-leader in oral diabetes medicines, called upon us to assist them in doubling their legal department within a 12-month period. Davidson Attorneys was instrumental in helping the client reach its goal by recruiting core talent and successfully placing five key individuals: Intellectual Property Administrator, Foreign Filling Specialist, Intellectual Property Paralegal, contract Senior Patent Associate and contract Patent Assistant. We provided flexible staffing solutions to assist with budget constraints by offering direct hire and contractor solutions. As of February 2009, this client has 11 people in their legal department and five out of the 11 are from Davidson Attorneys!
Davidson Attorneys was asked to provide the legal department of a Fortune 500 global transportation company with a team of document reviewers for a litigation discovery project. We responded immediately, providing a team of attorneys and paralegals. Our client was pleased with the outcome and cost-savings Davidson Attorneys provided and provided this testimonial:
The five-person team was very efficient and proactive as well. They understood the goal of the project and were very good at keeping within the time estimate given to accomplish this project. The five-person team worked with us for a time frame of two weeks. I was very satisfied with the staff and Davidson Staffing. I would use them again if the opportunity presents itself in the future.
Davidson Attorneys provided a team of 21 attorneys to assist a top tier law firm with its fast track discovery demands in a multi-million dollar patent infringement case. Our team of qualified and experienced contract attorneys was assembled and ready to start the job within 24 hours of the request. Davidson handled all employer related burdens and even supplied laptops for the electronic document review. Our team's contribution in preparing the case for trial ultimately resulted in a pre-trial settlement. This result not only benefited the firm by lowering its own overhead costs, but resulted in a savings of potentially astronomical trial costs and attorneys fees on behalf of the firm's client. A win-win result for all parties involved!
