My firm is having a major doc review and the partner was telling me what the grunts were doing. Review a doc a minute. (50/60) average for the whole day is the goal.

How the fuck can someone competently review a doc in one minute? He gave me the hint that the review is solely for looks and because its a court order so we have to do it but not necessarily well.

Is this how all doc reviews go? How is this ethical?

The even crazy thing about that is she was practicing law FOR LESS THAN A YEAR and started leaking info the SAME MONTH SHE STARTED WORKING AT COVINGTON!!!

"She said in the podcast she hasn’t applied to reinstate her license, even though the suspension has ended. In the last year, she said has found work as an on-call court reporter, according to the Times."

she's in a better place. I once had a Spanish-speaking secretary who was "considering law school." really sweet girl but realistically she's looking at a TTT. The partner *heavily* urged her to do court reporting instead. Apparently bilingual reporters charge $$$ and it's a low stress mom-friendly job.

I know a guy who was told to do this 1 per minute thing but he would instead take his time and review it properly, writing a three page practical and theoretical summary for each document. When the lead reviewer came in and saw he was only through 6 documents in 4 hours he shouted “Oh, what a scholar!”

Because your premise that it takes more than a minute to review a document to determine responsiveness to an RFP is not true.

these kinds of projects are often reviewing email accounts and you end looking at random spam from macys.com, HR emails about benefit sign-up, emails that say "lunch today?"

a lot of these take less than a second to realize it's nothing, click "next"

Imagine wasting your prime years sitting in a windowless room reviewing someone's email box for $25/hour and clicking boxes to indicate whether the emails respond to a question or don't.

Holy shit, why don't more people just quit and reinvent themselves?

Because those people are all in India now and have no better options? After ITE most doc review has been outsourced or radically culled down with technology assisted review. The people doing it aren't really wasting anything because they don't have anything to waste.

If you're referring to the 2nd/3rd level review a first or second year biglaw lit associate is doing, it is easy hours and more like $150/hour and part of just what you have to do as a junior.

Not flame I never understood why people on XO shit on this so much. A nice $25 an hour and sometimes OT to just come and go as you please on projects, 1099 the fuck out of write offs, your wife probably has health insurance all while you keep your hair and no stress while you do some podcast or personal training on the side. Sounds 180 as fuck.
