CHICAGO and HOUSTON -- The recent Kroll Ontrack ESI Trends Report states that 28% of legal advisors surveyed predict that the greatest legal department challenge in the next five years will be unmanageable volumes of Electronically Stored Information (ESI). In response to these trends and to support already increasing client needs, LawyerLink has opened a new Houston Project Center--the start of a national expansion of LawyerLink planned for 2009.

The Houston office is LawyerLink’s second Project Center, and like the Chicago Center, it is permanently equipped with offices, meeting spaces and computer workstations to manage ESI projects. Located in the Galleria District of Houston, the eighth floor offices overlook the bayou and expand LawyerLink’s nationwide project hosting capacity of "ready-to-use" facilities to more than 120 workstations.

"The new office helps support our clients with our lean, well-honed business model that we have developed over the past several years. We are able to apply the right resources at the right time and in the right amount to get the needs of the client met quickly and efficiently," says Jennifer Bertoglio, LawyerLink’s president and CEO. "We are well equipped to handle any client request and we anticipate opening offices in other cities in 2009."

LawyerLink provides legal staffing and project management services to corporations and law firms nationwide. With turnkey Project Centers in Chicago’s Sears Tower and in Houston, LawyerLink provides immediate access to fully-managed attorney review teams. Founded in 2005, LawyerLink employs Six Sigma process improvement methods and rigorous project management techniques to maximize quality and process efficiency, while helping corporations reduce their legal spend.
