May 13, 2008

Strategic partnership offers cost-effective audio and video processing

Chantilly, VA and Atlanta, GA, May 13, 2008 -- TechLaw Solutions, Inc., a leading electronic discovery consulting and services provider, and Nexidia, the developer of the most effective phonetic-based technology for audio search, today announced a strategic partnership designed to help clients more effectively and efficiently review and analyze electronic audio files as part of discovery. The two companies are joining together to incorporate Nexidia’s phonetic audio search technologies with TechLaw Solution’s extensive electronic discovery services to provide clients a complete approach to managing eDiscovery and regulatory compliance matters.

“Audio content is rapidly becoming more of an issue in eDiscovery,” said Mel Goldenberg, President of TechLaw Solutions. “Being able to examine audio files as a natural part of the process, and potentially locate content that could significantly impact the outcome of a case, provides a great advantage to our clients. We are therefore extremely pleased to extend our capabilities by partnering with Nexidia.”

Nexidia’s Audio Discovery OnDemand automatically identifies phoneme (speech) patterns, providing exponentially faster results and higher accuracy than either manual transcription or labor-intensive human listening. This audio search technology, combined with TechLaw Solution’s broad array of services, delivers a defensible process for integrating audio files in complex e-discovery requests.

“Digital voice recording and messaging systems, call center recordings and other audio content is on the rise. Legal professionals need accurate, scalable and cost-effective methods to search and analyze these recordings,” said John Willcutts, president and CEO of Nexidia. “We are pleased that TechLaw Solutions has chosen to partner with Nexidia to meet this growing market demand.”
