About The Common Source, LP

Established in May of 1997, as one of the first secure and private cloud solutions for hosting confidential and sensitive data for the legal community. Managing data on a private and secure cloud environment allows parties in multi-party litigation to work from one shared “common source” of data. Since the users do not have to purchase and maintain the infrastructure to manage large document populations, the smallest of firms can work at an equal level with the larger firms. The company was so far ahead of its time that its first clients had to access the system via a dial-up modem.

In 2006, the growth of electronic data was about to exceed the capabilities of existing databases. We began the development of an intricate system which combined document scanning, indexing, image management, electronic discovery, processing of electronic files to extract metadata, exportability to deliver files, images and data sets on demand – all orchestrated by a sophisticated search and retrieval system: Gabriel Docs™. The company has assisted law firms, corporations and the medical industry worldwide with managing volumes of documents. For more information we can be found online at www.commonsource.com.
