2003 Press Releases Applied Discovery Expands West Coast Operations New Offices Open in San Francisco and Los Angeles Apr. 14, 2003, Seattle, WA — Applied Discovery, Inc., the leading provider of electronic discovery services, today announced the expansion of its West Coast operations with the addition of new offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles. The new offices will serve the company's base of Top 100 law firms and Fortune 500 clients in California and neighboring states. Applied Discovery's electronic discovery technology enables attorneys to cost effectively review computer-based information in a centralized database during the discovery stage of litigation or the second request phase of an antitrust investigation. Attorneys can quickly identify, search, review, redact and produce responsive documents from a central repository. As a result, companies and their legal counsel save significant time and money when responding to an electronic document request. Applied Discovery's electronic discovery services have been utilized in notable legal cases including the Enron bankruptcy proceeding, the Hewlett Packard-Compaq merger, and last year's Wall Street investment bank investigations. "The addition of these two California offices positions us to more efficiently respond to the needs of our West Coast clients," said Tim Kilgallon, president and chief operating officer of Applied Discovery. "The rapidly increasing demand for electronic discovery services in San Francisco and Los Angeles necessitated simultaneous opening of offices in both locations." Christina Chiaramonte, Esq., formerly with the San Francisco office of Brobeck Phleger & Harrison, LLP, will manage the San Francisco office. Julie Locke, Esq., formerly with the Los Angeles office of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP, will lead the Los Angeles office. Both will serve as electronic discovery specialists, managing relationships with Applied Discovery's California clientele. "It is critical to have experienced attorneys directing these offices," noted Kilgallon. "Clients expect representatives from our company to fully comprehend their circumstances. Tight deadlines and highly specialized legal issues necessitate the assistance of a service provider with extensive discovery experience."
