‘They are literate in tech in a way that other firms are not – a well-oiled and professional machine. Their interface with the client and efficiency at execution make an otherwise painful process pretty much pain-free.’
‘Aulden Burcher-DuPont manages to make the discovery process enjoyable! Incredibly knowledgeable on his subject, articulate, quick on the uptake and pragmatic.’
‘The E-Discovery practice group is phenomenal and has an excellent roster of attorneys, including Vanessa Barsanti at the helm. They are well-versed in the issues and front-and-center on large discovery disputes on significant litigation matters, which gives them critical insights into trends and strategies that can apply across the firm's clients. They leverage technology frequently, and their people are easy to get along with. I'd recommend the team to anyone.’
‘Vanessa Barsanti is a standout, both for her knowledge/skillset and her excellent leadership. She deserves to be recognized for how hard she works for her clients and how well she leads her team. ’
‘Kirkland & Ellis boasts top-end legal talent, creative and hard-working attorneys, and the ability to handle even the most complex and sensitive matters. But what sets Kirkland & Ellis apart from other top-tier firms is its deep bench – from top to bottom. Kirkland & Ellis is far above its peers in both ability and breadth of experience and expertise of its attorneys.'
- 'On the e-discovery front, Kirkland & Ellis' attorneys are both subject matter experts and exceedingly hard-working, able to balance both exceptional work and client services.'
