Is it? Can't they scan all of those docs in, OCR them (or process the electronic docs if they're already in that format), and use e-discovery? I hear so often on HN that legal firms no longer need junior associates or paralegals for that work, as the software can do the heavy lifting.
Software has made major strides. The old way of sending multiple copies between sides to be hand redone for each change required stupid amounts of labor. Now we have Word. But understanding the importance of particular documents still requires humans. For now.
I initially read that with the alternative meaning of doctoring, which is is a rather amusing take on it.
Apparently they're not willing to pay for it.
