eDiscovery
in Gatineau.
Gatineau is across the river from our Ottawa base — and across a legal border. We run Québec-rules discovery on one bank, Ontario-rules discovery on the other, and plenty of files that need both.

One river,
two rulebooks.
The National Capital Region litigates across a provincial border. A Gatineau employer with Ottawa operations, a contractor working both banks, a family of companies split by the river — their disputes land under the Code of Civil Procedure on one side and Ontario’s Rules of Civil Procedure on the other, sometimes simultaneously.
We are built for exactly that: an Ottawa-based team with Montréal roots, running one hosted, bilingual evidence set that can feed a protocole de l’instance in Gatineau and a Rule 29.1 discovery plan in Ottawa without duplicating a byte.
The local rules
The rules, on
rue Laurier.
The Superior Court sits for the district of Gatineau at the Palais de justice on rue Laurier, applying the Code of Civil Procedure: the case protocol governing disclosure procedure and timing (arts. 148, 246), preservation under article 20, and article 229’s caps on pre-trial examinations.
Minutes away in Ottawa, the same dispute’s sister file may run on Ontario’s written discovery plan and affidavit of documents. Keeping the two consistent — same documents, same privilege calls, formats each court expects — is a coordination job we do all the time.

What we do
The hard parts,
handled.
Our services do not start at loading documents and do not end at producing them. For litigation teams in Gatineau, we work anywhere along the eDiscovery timeline — from the moment a matter is reasonably anticipated to the day the evidence is used at trial.
Preserve & collect
The hold in place, the custodians interviewed, the data collected forensically — from mailboxes and chat platforms to phones and twelve binders of paper.
Process & assess
Best-in-class processing into one consistent, deduplicated set, then an early assessment that strips the obvious noise before a lawyer reads a page.
Review
Managed review, properly staffed: relevance, issues and privilege coded by bilingual reviewers, with AI assistance that shows its work.
Produce & defend
Productions built for whoever is on the other side — load files, redactions, privilege logs and the affidavit or list of documents to back them.
The full menu — from litigation holds to trial support — is on our services page. If you want the platform rather than the people, we host Nuix Discover in Canada with Claira for AI-assisted review, and we run platform migrations from Relativity, Ipro and everything else.
Managed review
Document review support in Gatineau.
Review is where eDiscovery budgets go to die, so it is where we put the most structure. Documents arrive grouped with their threads, families and near-duplicates; first-pass volume goes through Claira, AI-assisted review inside Nuix Discover that shows its reasoning on every call; and bilingual reviewers make the decisions that matter.
For teams in Gatineau, that means review support that scales without a hiring spree — staffed quickly, QC-sampled throughout, with privilege screening, redactions and a defensibility record you can stand behind in court.
FAQ
Questions
we hear.
Can one review serve a Québec and an Ontario proceeding?
Yes, with planning. One hosted set, one coding scheme, and productions cut per forum — the protocole de l’instance on the Gatineau side, the discovery plan and Form 30A affidavit on the Ottawa side. Privilege gets asserted consistently in both, which is half the point.
Can you review documents in French and English?
Yes — bilingual review, correspondence and productions are the default at noticia, not an add-on line item. Reviewers work in both languages, and productions go out in whichever language the matter calls for.
How fast can a review start?
Processing starts as soon as data lands, and a calibrated review team — with Claira carrying the first pass — is usually making calls within days of scope being agreed, not weeks.
