Continuous Active Learning eDiscovery
P&C Global’s Continuous Active Learning (CAL) in eDiscovery
In a legal environment defined by data overload and accelerated timelines, law firms must evolve beyond traditional document review strategies to remain competitive. Conventional linear review methods are too slow and too costly to keep pace with the scale and complexity of modern litigation. This is where Continuous Active Learning in eDiscovery comes into play—leveraging AI and machine learning to transform legal document review into a dynamic, intelligent process to gain the upper hand in legal strategy and case preparedness.
P&C Global’s Continuous Active Learning (CAL) eDiscovery consulting services equip law firms with an advanced, AI-powered eDiscovery framework for document analysis and review. CAL enables supervised learning in eDiscovery and predictive models to continually refine their understanding of relevance and priority as documents are reviewed—allowing case teams to surface the most critical content faster, with greater accuracy and efficiency.
With deep expertise in legal technologies, P&C Global designs and implements CAL workflows that align with your firm’s case strategy, risk profile, and technology stack. We turn vast volumes of unstructured data into actionable insight, enabling smarter litigation planning, streamlined discovery, and improved responsiveness. Our end-to-end approach ensures you realize the full strategic value of AI in eDiscovery—including defensibility in document review, discovery data reduction, and improved quality control in AI-assisted review—without disrupting your practice.
Industry Challenges Facing Law Firm Leaders
Document review remains one of the most resource-intensive and strategically critical components of litigation. As matters grow in complexity and data volumes surge, law firms are grappling with operational inefficiencies, inconsistent quality, and mounting client expectations. Traditional review models—built for smaller datasets and linear workflows—are increasingly inadequate in an era defined by digital sprawl, compressed timelines, and pressure for early insights. To stay competitive, firms must overcome systemic barriers that hinder scalability, accuracy, and strategic responsiveness in the automated legal document review process.
Data Volume & Review Backlogs
Cases today involve terabytes of structured and unstructured data—ranging from email threads to chat logs and audio transcripts. Without automated document classification or scalable solutions, firms face mounting backlogs that delay case progress and inflate costs.
Inconsistent Review Quality
Traditional linear review processes rely heavily on manual judgment, leading to variability across reviewers and increasing the likelihood of missed or misclassified documents. The absence of relevance ranking algorithms and reviewer feedback loops further compounds these inconsistencies.
Rigid Review Methodologies
Many firms continue to use static, rules-based review workflows that do not adapt as case knowledge evolves. This results in inefficient legal data prioritization, poor document tagging workflows, and suboptimal resource deployment.
Underutilized Advanced AI Capabilities
Despite the growing availability of legal AI tools, firms often underutilize features such as Continuous Active Learning due to concerns around complexity, cost, or adoption risk. A lack of understanding of how continuous active learning improves eDiscovery contributes to this gap.
Pressures for Early Case Assessment & Risk Mitigation
Clients expect early visibility into litigation risks, costs, and likely outcomes. Without a dynamic and intelligent review approach grounded in early case assessment (ECA) and privilege review automation, firms struggle to deliver timely and credible assessments.

Strategic Planning for Continuous Active Learning eDiscovery
We work closely with litigation and discovery leaders to define the appropriate scope, objectives, and success metrics for CAL implementation. Our approach is grounded in the specific needs of your case or portfolio, ensuring relevance and value from day one.
CAL Platform Enablement & AI Integration
We enable CAL functionality in leading eDiscovery platforms such as Relativity, Reveal, and DISCO. Our team configures models to learn from reviewer decisions in real time, continuously improving classification and relevance scoring through binary classification models and relevance feedback mechanisms.
Reviewer Training & Workflow Design
We deliver structured training and support to ensure your legal professionals understand the CAL process, its impact on prioritization, and how to interpret results. Our workflow models integrate seamlessly with your case strategy and reviewer protocols—optimizing legal workflow automation and proportionality in legal discovery.
Performance Monitoring & Model Optimization
We actively monitor system performance, recalibrate model parameters, and adjust workflows to ensure that CAL systems continue to deliver accurate, defensible, and efficient results. We provide transparent reporting to track progress, ROI, and algorithmic transparency in eDiscovery.
Risk Management & Legal Defensibility
We embed controls and audit trails to ensure that CAL-driven decisions are fully defensible in legal proceedings. Our governance frameworks meet industry standards for transparency, consistency, and legal compliance in eDiscovery.
Cross-Matter Intelligence & Portfolio Insights
We extend CAL beyond individual cases to uncover insights across litigation portfolios—spotting recurring themes, custodians, and risk patterns. Our dashboards give legal teams portfolio-level visibility to accelerate issue identification, optimize reviews, and guide strategic decisions.
