Case Study: KLDiscovery achieves rapid legacy-data import and issues 5 legal holds for 220 custodians with Relativity

Kldiscovery Quickly Imported Legacy Data to Easily Issue 5 Legal Holds Containing 220 Custodians

KLDiscovery, a global eDiscovery and data services firm, was engaged by a large financial institution to resolve an ongoing legal-hold and legacy data problem dating back to 2008. To regain control of ineffective and poorly managed holds, KLDiscovery chose Relativity and its Relativity Legal Hold solution to import legacy contacts and document historical hold activity.

Using Relativity, KLDiscovery quickly imported legacy data, created custom fields to capture historical contacts, attached previously issued holds, and generated organized reports — enabling them to issue 5 legal holds covering 220 custodians. Relativity’s Legal Hold helped KLDiscovery get the project up and running fast, remove the burden from in‑house counsel and IT, and deliver clear, auditable results.
