‘Jaime Raba has a tremendous skillset with a combination of computer science coding, analytics, and lawyering that allows teams to find the proverbial "needle in a haystack" or identify patterns not visible to the normal observer. It is something I have not seen paralleled by any other lawyer anywhere, and he's working with Kathleen to develop a team of analysts capable of providing top-notch information for defending large-scale cases. For example, this team developed its own AI technology for litigation before that was even a thing, and is now using AI to further hone their capabilities. ’
‘Jaime Raba is a genius. Not only does he have an unparalleled skillset in e-discovery techniques. He is a creative problem solver who never takes "no" for an answer in trying to get to the root of an issue. I know he has saved clients millions due to his ability to hone exposure analyses at detailed levels the other side never even comes close to doing. ’
