Wortzmans has managed and supported numerous high-volume Competition Bureau SIR responses, one of the most challenging parts of a large M&A transaction. Faced with extremely tight deadlines, mass volumes of information must be quickly identified, collected and reviewed. We understand the demands placed by the Bureau upon parties and their counsel and we know how to get the job done as quickly as you need it. We also partner with leading e-discovery service providers to leverage technology, often using technology-assisted review, to expedite the process in a cost effective manner.
Experience and Results
Successfully responding to a Competition Bureau Supplementary Information Request (SIR) requires experience and a specialized approach. The projects highlighted below had specific and unique challenges, in addition to the large volume of data and short time frame for delivery to the Bureau. Our review teams for these projects ranged from 20 to 85 lawyers, many of whom were multilingual, to meet the language requirements of the projects.
At Wortzmans, we understand that these matters are time-sensitive and highly confidential. We work collaboratively with transactional parties and their counsel to ensure that all production obligations are met.
Our firm’s highly trained review team and our legal and technical expertise in data processing, culling and analysis, enables us to quickly and defensibly manage the SIR process. This allows your team to keep its focus exclusively on the transaction.
