CHICAGO, March 30, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In an effort to meet the growing demand for multilingual legal support and cost reduction across the discovery lifecycle, Hudson Legal (Nasdaq:HHGP) has drawn upon its 25 years of experience in foreign language legal services to launch Hudson Legal Language Solutions.
Within this offering, Hudson provides three specialized services: Foreign Language Document Review, Legal Document Translation and Global Legal Staffing, enabling law firms and corporate legal departments to customize a solution to fit their particular needs. Hudson's Language Solutions delivers benefits to clients such as rapid response to assemble the right team of document review attorneys under tight deadlines, flexibility to scale resources to meet evolving foreign language litigation and legal project needs, and the convenience of a single-source solution for document review.
"We can manage all or part of a foreign language document review and translation. What's more, we can help a client's bottom line by determining responsiveness and potential privilege early in a review," said Lauren Rothenberg, senior vice president at Hudson Legal. "Translating every document can be time consuming and expensive, and is often unnecessary. By reviewing and coding documents in the source language first, we are able to cut down on the number of documents that require translation. This is a substantial value-add to our clients. Decreasing the data can drastically increase cost savings."
Beyond efficiency, Hudson emphasizes proficiency with its foreign language legal services approach. Its attorneys and other legal professionals are screened and tested to verify fluency across a wide range of languages such as Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, French, German, Hebrew, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai and Turkish.
The Hudson Legal website includes foreign language document review case studies, such as litigation for an S&P 500 technology company that required attorneys fluent in more than a dozen languages, as well as a substantive responsiveness review and privilege coding that required staffing more than 40 multilingual attorneys.
