Litigation Support Staffing : The Cowen Group : Ediscovery Recruiters, Candidate Search, Practice Support, Position Placement

Good news…Despite the recent decline in the banking, brokerage, and financial community the legal staffing realm continues to grow! As a result, The Cowen Group is pleased to share with you our latest announcement:

THE COWEN GROUP LAUNCHES LEGAL TECHNOLOGY DIVISION  

Search firm expands beyond litigation support recruiting and staffing to fulfill increased demand for top talent in legal technology 

NEW YORK – September 17, 2008 – The Cowen Group (www.cowengroup.com), a New York-based recruiting and staffing firm specializing in litigation support and e-discovery, today announces the expansion of services to include placement of top talent in legal technology positions. The Cowen Group helps human resource departments with staffing needs for CIO, director of information technology, system engineers, software developers and analysts.

Despite a slowing economy, The Cowen Group Salary Survey shows the demand for legal technology, litigation support and e-discovery resources required to operate successful law firms and corporate legal IT departments continues to rise.

As law firms and corporate legal departments become more technically sophisticated, there is a growing need for technical experts that understand how to analyze, develop, deploy and administer new systems and protocols that not only fit the organization’s culture, but are compliant with regulatory agency requirements. Historical cases such as Morgan Stanley or Zubulake and federal regulation such as SOX and the newly amended FRCP have made every attorney take a second look at their in-house technology and protocol. History proves that not abiding by these rules and regulations sets an organization up for heavy sanctions or possibly an organization’s dreadful demise.

“In this global economy our clients require a strategic partner who can provide expertise in identifying and matching the best human resources with the best organization,” stated David Cowen, founder and president of The Cowen Group.  “We have created an extensive network of talented legal technology professionals and provide valuable market intelligence for many of our clients. We are now seizing upon our vision to remain as the leader in market insight and talent placement and look forward to helping our clients expand and grow every way possible.”
