Working hours overlap
Your day is their day shift.
Sydney (AEST)9:00am
Manila (PHT)7:00am
Manila is 2 hours behind Sydney (3 in daylight saving), so your business day is a normal day shift for them.
Can they work on Relativity?
Yes. Relativity is the most common document review platform for our legal placements.
How do we handle privilege review?
Privilege tagging protocols are briefed by supervising lawyers. Privilege calls are escalated to qualified reviewers or solicitors.
Can they review documents in a language other than English?
For some languages, yes. Mandarin, Tagalog, and other languages are available. Specific language requirements should be included in the brief.
What review speed can we expect?
Typical first-pass review speed is 40–80 documents per hour depending on document length and complexity.
Can they scale up quickly for large discovery projects?
Yes. Multiple document reviewers can be engaged simultaneously for large-volume matters, with shared protocol and QC review.
