Systems and methods for electronic document review

摘要

Systems and methods enable convenient and accurate searching, filtering, reviewing, and classification of electronic documents without the loss of metadata. A communication data source file is parsed into conversation-specific files that include message content and metadata. The message content and metadata are displayed on a computing device operated by a reviewer. To streamline the review process, the reviewer can filter display of the message content according to various metadata categories as well as search conversation-specific files using the metadata categories.

主权项

1. A computer-implemented method of electronic document review comprising the steps of:
(a) providing a discovery computing device; (b) parsing by the discovery computing device, a source file into at least one conversation-specific file, the at least one conversation-specific file comprising message content and a first metadata category; (c) transmitting from the discovery computing device to a reviewer computing device, the message content and the first metadata category for the at least one conversation-specific file; (d) searching by the discovery computing device, the at least one conversation-specific file for message content according to the first metadata category; (e) filtering by the discovery computing device, the message content by selecting or deselecting the message content for display by the reviewer computing device according to the first metadata category; and (f) transmitting the filtered message content from the discovery computing device to the reviewer computing device.
