Everest Discovery will support Justice for Change grant recipients in their use of RelativityOne
August 30, 2022
Everest Discovery LLC, a leading national litigation support and eDiscovery provider, today announced its designation as a Hosting Partner with Relativity’s Justice for Change program. This partnership will enable Everest Discovery to provide hosting, administrative and project management support to grant recipient organizations in their use of RelativityOne.
Through the program, organizations without a RelativityOne license or litigation support experience will be paired with a Relativity service provider or law firm to offer the software or support needed. As a RelativityOne certified partner since 2019, Everest is participating in the program and offering project management support to organizations in the program.
“When we learned of this program, we were thrilled to participate and offer our services and expertise to help make legal services more accessible to those who otherwise wouldn’t be able to have that support,” states Sue Pellegrino, owner and president of Everest Discovery. “Our team has assisted with two cases already, and we look forward to whatever additional support we can provide to make the legal system more available to all.”
Relativity’s Justice for Change program focuses on increasing access to justice by providing free use of its cloud-based eDiscovery product RelativityOne to organizations tackling legal cases and academic and policy research related to racial and social justice. Specifically, Justice for Change has allocated 100TB of RelativityOne data to be used on pro bono projects led by customers or nonprofit organizations. Through the Justice for Change hosting partnership, Everest Discovery is committed to the continuous pursuit of justice through great pro bono work and building important connections.
“It is the expertise and generosity of our partners that enable us to make this great program possible,” says Johnathan Hill, community engagement lead at Relativity. “We’re thrilled to welcome Everest Discovery into the Justice for Change community and look forward to the impact they have supporting a nonprofit organization as they pursue a more just world.”
“As a nonprofit organization that works to protect and advocate for children who have been abused or exposed to interpersonal violence or coercive control, we were thrilled to learn of the Justice for Change program. It gives our legal team access to technology, expertise and resources we wouldn’t otherwise have, and we are thankful for the organizations that have all partnered to offer these services to this underserved community,” states Eileen King, founder and executive director of Child Justice, Inc.
Organizations, including current Relativity customers, doing legal work on behalf of racial justice that would benefit from software to help them organize and search documents and build out a case narrative can apply for free use of the cloud-based eDiscovery product RelativityOne.

Our core focus on solutions, service and security enables us to provide actionable insights that transform workflows, reduce risk and generate significant cost savings for our client base. We comprehensively address our clients’ business problems by incorporating best-of-breed technologies, knowledge-based services and a consultative approach. Everest is proud to be ISO 27001 certified, a certified WBENC Women’s Business Enterprise, a WOSB (Women-Owned Small Business) certified via the SBA and a GSA contractor.
Every year, the Women’s Business Enterprise National Council, provider of one of the most respected certifications for women-owned businesses, holds its national conference bringing together thousands of women business owners and their teams, supplier diversity professionals and procurement and senior executive representatives from the Fortune 1000 and federal government to create opportunities for women entrepreneurs across the country.
The WBENC National Conference is the largest event of its kind for women business owners. This year’s conference, celebrating the event’s 25th anniversary, took place at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta on June 6-9. Everest Discovery was happy to have two of our own attend this year – Sue Pellegrino, president and chief financial officer, and John Trickey, director of sales.
The event was an incredible opportunity for Sue and John to connect in person with other women-owned businesses and their teams and watch demos to learn about their products and services. Everest belongs to WBENC East, and the conference gave us the chance to network with people in our own backyard and meet with our regional partner organization members. Most of the companies Sue and John connected with had their head of supplier diversity and procurement buyers in attendance.
Through the course of three jam-packed days, Sue and John got to interact with representatives of over 300 women-owned businesses. The Meet & Greet was a great opportunity to network and connect with other corporate members in an open but structured format – almost like speed dating for businesses. The various receptions were another chance for networking, as well as offering plenty of fun, food, and libations.
A highlight of the conference was the informative seminars and speakers. One that stood out was a fireside chat with federal government representatives about small business procurement. The session explained how the SBA and GSA have increased their support for small businesses with new leadership and resources for accessing the Women-Owned Small Business Federal Contracting Program. The fireside chat also explored the ways Women Impacting Public Policy is advocating for change for women on Capitol Hill, with a theme of getting involved and sharing your voice. Attendees left with plenty of tips and guidance for working with the federal government.
Another informative session, entitled “Positioned to Thrive,” focused on evaluating your business and strategies for growth and protection. The panel discussed the importance of knowing the value of your business, as well as the things that are driving or limiting that value. Among the big messages was the need to have owner life insurance as part of your business continuity plan so that you know how your business will survive when you’re no longer there to run it.
Several trends emerged as takeaways from the conference. First, companies are seeking a greater buy-in from their legal departments to implement diverse purchasing initiatives. Second, many companies are not only trying to get their legal departments to support diverse companies, but also to allocate their spend through strategic sourcing to realize cost savings. Finally, legal spend is emerging as an area for great overall cost reduction if traditional purchasing procedures are utilized.
The entire event was very well organized, with its own devoted app that provided the schedule of events, bios for speakers and exhibitors and a place to take notes. Shuttles took attendees to the convention center, as well as to an enjoyable night at the Atlanta Aquarium, featuring the beluga whales exhibit, karaoke and a fun, relaxed time for everyone who attended. If you’re thinking of joining WBENC in the future, we recommend comfortable shoes!
