Document Scanning’s Role in Litigation Support

Updated: Jan 30, 2023


While the majority of legal discovery is focused on digital evidence, ClearView understands that discovery still happens beyond the confines of ESI. ClearView has continued to be a reliable litigation support and Document Scanning provider that has consistently handled your paper needs over the last decade. Our facility has the personnel, machines, and workflows in place to handle your imaging requests while providing a high level of security for your documents.


In litigation, Document Scanning and Imaging can take a variety of forms based on what industry the matter is for and the type of litigation legal teams are faced with. Commonly, Document Scanning becomes pushed to the forefront of litigation when the case involves documents from decades earlier that live in banker's boxes and file cabinets. These documents have been archived away but are not readily available in digital format for discovery or document review.


This is where a Document Scanning partner creates value. Document Scanning allows teams to take large volumes of paper documents, digitize them, apply OCR to make the documents searchable, and then index those documents into a searchable database.


This can be extremely helpful for several reasons. From an operational standpoint, not only is this a scalable solution but it also allows documents to be preserved indefinitely in a format that won’t degrade over time. From a case standpoint, it is far more efficient for Document Reviewers to review a database of searchable documents as opposed to the old-school way of a team of reviewers and hard copy documents. Teams can also apply Technology Assisted Review (TAR) and other AI workflows to streamline their review, enabling them to uncover key details quicker.


While it sounds like a relatively simple task, Document Scanning is complex when it comes to the workflows needed to handle projects at scale without compromising quality. Quality and speed are two of the biggest factors that come into play when dealing with scanning projects.
