Northeast
The country’s largest megalopolis
spanning the entire Northeast
corridor is by far the industry’s
richest market for job opportunities in eDiscovery and Litigation
Support. New York is home to the
largest number of Top 200 AM
Law Firms and Financial
Institutions, while Washington DC
is at the epicenter of all jobs within
the Federal Government Agency
space. Boston is home to some of
the industry’s most prominent
Software Manufacturers, Biotech,
and Financial Institutions, where
jobs within the eDiscovery market
are also dominant.
Southeast
A large concentration of Fortune 500
Companies are based in Atlanta and the
Carolinas, leading the surge in eDiscovery
jobs in the Southeast Region. Of
particular note, the U.S. Attorney’s Office
has expanded its Litigation Technology
Service Center in Columbia, SC, leading
to an increase in government and vendor
opportunities in this region.

About LTS:
LTS is an executive search and consulting firm formed
immediately following the amendments of the Federal Rules
of Civil Procedure regarding Electronically Stored Information
(ESI), in late 2006 with a single mission: To service the
information security and information governance needs of a
rapidly-changing digital world.
A veteran-owned, woman-owned, small business, LTS was
established by a team of professionals with hands-on
experience working within the Legal Technology industry, and
an exclusive network that spans all corners of the globe. We
stay ahead of emerging trends; constantly gathering and
sharing information and intelligence with both public and
private sector partners worldwide.
We service the Cyber Security, Digital Forensic, Electronic
Discovery, and Litigation Support needs of Top 250 AM Law
Firms, Fortune 500 Corporate Legal Departments, Software
Manufacturers, and E-Discovery Service providers, and
Government Agencies throughout the United States.
How did LTS collect this data?
Data displayed within the LTS Salary Study was gathered over a twelve (12) month period and
drawn from the following sources:
Over 5,000 individual, one-on-one qualification interviews with industry professionals.
Actual employment offer letters garnered.
What data does LTS collect?
LTS collects information regarding all forms of compensation including base salaries, benefits,
and variable pay such as performance-based income (incentive bonuses and over-time pay),
from over 5,000 candidates throughout the United States holding various roles in the
E-Discovery and Litigation Support industry.
How is this study different from traditional salary surveys?
Most salary surveys rely on answers to respondent questionnaires, the content of which cannot
be verified for accuracy. The LTS Salary Study was constructed utilizing actual data gathered
through telephonic and in-person interviews as well as bona fide employment offer letters
garnered by LTS on behalf of job seekers whom we have personally represented.
The analysis of correlation between compensation, educational background, and industry
specific certifications are among additional differentiators of the LTS Salary Study.
With an emphasis on the various gateways into a career in E-Discovery, the LTS Salary Study
provides a unique perspective for new-comers in learning how to “get a foot in the door.”
