Case Study: Allen & Overy achieves proactive, globally scalable e-discovery with Relativity (RelativityOne)

Allen & Overy Transforms Global Business with RelativityOne

Allen & Overy, an international law firm of about 5,400 people and 550 partners across 44 offices, needed a way to manage complex, multijurisdictional e‑discovery at scale. To address this challenge the firm implemented RelativityOne from Relativity in 2018 to support a proactive, global approach to e‑discovery across its matters.

Relativity deployed RelativityOne across Allen & Overy’s practice, enabling attorneys to request the platform on their matters and allowing the firm to scale workflows and innovations worldwide. The result, Relativity reports, is practically unlimited scalability for a firm whose more than 60% of matters are multijurisdictional; Allen & Overy has scaled globally since 2018 and is now extending RelativityOne to build non‑litigation, client‑facing tools with measurable improvements in reach and operational agility.
