International Commercial Law Firm Replaces Workshare Professional with NextGeneration Content Management Solutions from Litéra
Litéra®, the leader in next-generation document lifecycle management (DLM), today announced that its document comparison and metadata cleansing solutions have been licensed by SJ Berwin, a highly respected international commercial law firm headquartered in London. Professionals at SJ Berwin, which has offices worldwide, will use Litéra’s Change-Pro® and Metadact® products to manage their document comparison and metadata cleansing requirements.

The firm employs 600 lawyers, including around 170 partners, working from 12 offices in Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
“The firm was looking for a comparison and data cleansing product that would help move us forward from our old solution,” said Simon Kosminsky, IT Director at SJ Berwin. “We looked at Litéra for a long time. We liked the product, the people, the company and the value for money. Our due diligence showed that Litéra met our standards in terms of reliability, ease of use and support.”
"In conjunction with our Document Production Unit and various secretaries and lawyers throughout the firm we undertook a comparison of WorkShare with Litéra using our standard methodology for product comparison" said Terry Lawley, project delivery manager, SJ Berwin. "Litéra exhibited superior performance during the evaluation which reflected the feedback received from those in the business who had been using both products for a number of months."
