Redaction for Legal Departments

Redaction for Legal Departments

-

Ensure confidentiality, consistency, and compliance — without slowing your team down

Corporate legal teams are responsible for reviewing and producing vast amounts of sensitive documents — from contracts and HR files to compliance reports and subpoena responses. Manually redacting sensitive data is not only slow but risky.

Redactable automates redaction for legal departments, helping in-house counsel and compliance teams remove confidential or privileged content accurately, consistently, and at scale.

The Challenge: Managing Data Exposure Across Legal Workflows

In-house legal teams must balance speed and accuracy when preparing materials for audits, litigation, and subpoena compliance.
Documents may contain personally identifiable information (PII), trade secrets, or attorney-client communications that must be protected before disclosure.

Manual redaction workflows often:

  • Slow down response times to regulatory or subpoena requests.

  • Create inconsistency across business units or regions.

  • Increase the risk of accidental disclosure of privileged or sensitive data.

Redactable eliminates these risks through automated, policy-driven redaction.

How Redactable Helps Legal Departments

  • AI-Powered Detection — Automatically identify and remove PII, privileged terms, contract clauses, or case identifiers.

  • Subpoena & Discovery Redaction — Quickly prepare subpoena responses by auto-detecting sensitive or privileged information before production.

  • Policy-Based Automation — Apply department-wide redaction policies for HR, compliance, or contract review.

  • Batch Processing — Redact thousands of pages across multiple cases or departments in minutes.

  • Audit-Ready Reports — Maintain an unbroken chain of custody with detailed activity logs.

  • Secure Deployment — Available in the cloud or on-premise with SSO, role-based access, and encryption.

  • Integrations — Connects seamlessly to Google Drive, Box, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Clio.

Why Redaction Matters for Subpoena Requests

When responding to a subpoena, organizations are legally obligated to disclose relevant documents — but they must also ensure privileged or protected information isn’t exposed. Failing to redact sensitive content can:

  • Breach attorney-client privilege.

  • Expose personal or financial data.

  • Violate data-protection regulations.

  • Undermine your organization’s legal position.

Redactable streamlines subpoena compliance by automatically detecting sensitive content across large data sets, producing consistent and defensible redactions that hold up under scrutiny.
