Document review. (Cue the groans.) The prospect of reviewing thousands of (often mind-numbingly boring) e-mails, memos, bills, reports and other documents generated by a client in the course of its daily business doesn’t exactly inspire glee in the hearts and minds of young lawyers.

Gone are the days of conference rooms with boxes and redwells full of documents stacked to the ceiling; now attorneys can flip through documents on their computers using software specifically designed for discovery during litigation and the document review that goes along with it.
