Berkeley, Calif. - December 6, 2005 Recommind, the leading provider of search and automated categorization systems for law firms, announced today that international law firm Morrison & Foerster has selected two Recommind products, MindServer Legal Enterprise Search and MindServer Legal Matters & Expertise, for its firm-wide Answer Base. Recommind's MindServer search platform will enable the firm's lawyers and support staff to search across multiple databases and third-party search engines simultaneously from a single location. MindServer Legal Matters & Expertise links information from practice management systems, billing systems, CRM and contact management systems to provide a complete view of the matters within the firm.

“Before we selected Recommind, we examined a number of search systems and then ran pilot tests of the two finalists,” said Oz Benamram, Practice Resources Attorney at Morrison & Foerster. “What particularly impressed us about Recommind's MindServer is the way it has helped us achieve our goal of enabling our attorneys to simultaneously search all of our databases around the world and quickly narrow the search to the specific information they need. This saves time and improves the value of our services.”

Of particular value to Morrison & Foerster is the implementation of MindServer Legal Matters & Expertise, a product that was shaped by the firm's vision for a matter-centric knowledge management system. To pinpoint lawyers within the firm with specific expertise, for instance Sarbanes-Oxley or pharmaceutical patent litigation, one search quickly identifies attorneys throughout the firm with such expertise. Users can browse through bios and view specific matters attorneys have worked on or documents they've authored. In the past getting such information typically involved sending emails to people throughout the firm's offices, a cumbersome and unreliable approach that could take days. MindServer Matters & Expertise makes it possible to get much more reliable information within seconds.

Morrison & Foerster plans to deploy the new system by the end of the first quarter of 2006. “We are very pleased that, after an exhaustive search, Morrison & Foerster has chosen Recommind's MindServer Legal for its Answer Base,” said Robert Tennant, Recommind's CEO. “With MindServer, Morrison & Foerster is providing its staff with a fast, easy and powerful tool to find documents, matters and expertise across the entire firm. Being able to simultaneously search multiple databases and repositories assures that searches will be quick, thorough and accurate. That's why many of the largest law firms are using our search platform.”
