Rockville, MD — In many review operations, reviewers are seen as interchangeable labor. They’re brought in for a project, given minimal training, and expected to start clicking. When the job ends, so does their connection to the case and to the firm.
But there is a better way.
Tanenholz & Marr reviewers are trained like attorneys—because they are attorneys. From day one, they work alongside experienced senior team members, reviewing real documents and receiving substantive feedback. They aren’t just taught what buttons to click. They’re taught how to think, how to truly evaluate documents, and how to review efficiently. Legal document review is more than just scanning and clicking– it’s the practice of discovering and understanding the truth of a case’s story.
Each reviewer works under the supervision of a Senior Associate who checks their work, answers questions, and helps them grow. Above them, a Review Manager provides structural oversight and guidance.
And we don’t rush the process. Promotion takes time and experience. Each Associate reviews hundreds of thousands of documents across numerous different matters before stepping into a leadership role.
The result is a team that knows how to spot different forms of privilege, understands legal nuance, and brings consistency to every decision. Our clients don’t just get reviewers. They get legal professionals who understand the stakes.
In a world that too often favors speed over substance, we invest in people. Because better-trained reviewers don’t just work faster—they work smarter. And better.
