| Source: UHY Advisors
HOUSTON, TX -- (MARKET WIRE) -- May 2, 2007 -- UHY Advisors today announced the opening of its
newly constructed electronic data discovery lab, a state-of-the-art
facility for processing large volumes of electronic evidence and conducting
sophisticated computer forensics investigations, at a secure location in
downtown Houston.
The lab is unique for its flexibility to be used for both high-volume
electronic data discovery -- including data processing, culling with search
terms, de-duplication and file conversion -- and complex digital forensics
activities. The facility is secured with biometric locks and the evidence
storage "vault" is also secured with advanced motion detectors.
"With approximately 90 percent of all business communications now stored in
some sort of electronic form, it's crucial for law firms and corporate
legal departments to be able to rely on outside professionals who can
provide high-quality electronic evidence collection, processing, review and
production services from a secure location," said Doug Herman, managing
director of UHY Advisors' fast-growing Forensic, Litigation and Valuations
Services (FLVS) Group. "Our lab is staffed by a team of four full-time
professionals and is capable of uploading up to 50 gigabytes of electronic
data every 24 hours. Coupled with our knowledgeable consultants, project
managers, forensic investigators and sophisticated digital forensics
equipment in the lab, we have the capability to handle all electronic data
discovery requirements -- from the pre-filing stage of the case to its
successful conclusion -- all in one location."
UHY Advisors' FLVS Group is a national consulting practice that has been
successfully working with law firms and in-house law departments for more
than 25 years to deliver a comprehensive package of services for litigation
consulting, fraud and forensic services, and business valuation.
