Business Wire, June 10, 2008
Former Merrill Lynch Litigation Specialist Named VP of Discovery Strategy by Prominent Discovery Management Company
NEW YORK -- DiscoverReady LLC (www.DiscoverReady.com), a leading discovery management services company which outsources document review for Fortune 500 corporate counsel, announced today that Amy Hinzmann has joined the company as a VP of Discovery Strategy. Ms. Hinzmann will lead and expand DiscoverReady's financial services practice group, which has grown dramatically due to the recent surge of subprime mortgage and auction rate security activity in the financial services industry.
Hinzmann, 31, was previously VP and Counsel for Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith LLC in NYC. As counsel for Merrill's brokerage business, she served as liaison between the business operation and outside counsel in customer arbitrations and litigations in the US and Latin America. She managed document collection and supervised discovery responses both for litigation and regulatory purposes. Prior to that, Hinzmann held several other roles at Merrill in the U.S. and abroad, and she was an attorney at Jenkens & Gilchrist, PC (now Hunton & Williams LLP).
"Amy is an experienced attorney with deep expertise in financial services, both from a business and legal standpoint," said Jim Wagner, co-founder and CEO of DiscoverReady. "She is the ideal person to lead our financial services practice group to its full potential, and will certainly be a great asset."
Hinzmann expressed great excitement at joining the company. "DiscoverReady is a leader in the discovery management and document review space and I am extremely pleased to be on board. My experience with financial products and the corresponding regulatory environment allow me to hit the ground running with DiscoverReady's strong financial services client base and grow our practice."
