ATLANTA – April 12, 2018 — Epiq, a global leader in the legal services industry, today announced its plans for a data products group to be based in Providence, Rhode Island. 

“While the legal industry has been an early adopter of analytics in eDiscovery, we are still in the early stages of exploration when it comes to the value that can be derived from legal data. By focusing this new investment in data science on emerging areas such as legal process improvement and risk analysis, we will be prepared to deliver incredible value to our clients,” said Cliff Dutton, chief innovation officer. “Data relating to legal actions can be analyzed to better assess risks and forecast costs. As information governance, corporate compliance, internal investigations, and eDiscovery converge, data science can deliver new operational awareness to executives responsible for legal, compliance, and operations functions.”

Epiq will continue to increase the incorporation of data science and analytics into our products and services to provide accretive value to our clients. The data products group is an extension of our 200+ strong innovation team, with dedicated development groups in Kansas City, Beaverton, Seattle, Phoenix, New York, and Hyderabad.  

Epiq invests in excess of $30 million annually in innovation and development to keep pace with and to address our clients’ requirements and ever-changing needs. The data products group, an additional team of 30 people, will partner with our product management, product development, client services, and operations professionals across the globe to design and deliver new data-oriented solutions.
