Our history and where we are today

When we started The Posse List in 2002 our base was contract attorneys, the lawyers who worked on document review and production — the “right side” of the EDRM.   These cases required an army of attorney and paralegal document reviewers — called in like a “posse” at the last minute, as needed.   Law firms adopted the cost-saving manufacturing principle of “just-in-time” production, and applied it to a service industry: hire attorneys “just when you need them” but only on a short-term, part-time basis.

But as the technology improved, the need for these large numbers dwindled.  But there was an increase in the need for greater sophistication and expertise in the management of electronically stored information, e-discovery analysis.

Our members now include contract attorneys, forensics consultants, paralegals, in-house counsel, law firm attorneys, solo practitioners, e-discovery companies, legal media entities, law school recruitment offices and numerous legal support professionals.

Please note we are a job posting service. We do not provide any legal advice or information about the industry.
