Consilio Completes Acquisition of the Adecco Group’s Legal Consulting and eDiscovery Business Units of Special Counsel, including D4 and EQ

Consilio, a global leader in eDiscovery, document review, risk management, and legal consulting services, announced today it has closed the acquisition of the Adecco Group’s D4 and EQ, the legal consulting and eDiscovery (“legal solutions”) business of Special Counsel. The acquisition will create greater scale and resources for Consilio to deliver an enhanced client experience.

“Consilio’s acquisition of D4 and EQ is a significant advance in the breadth of our U.S. and International data operations,” said Andy Macdonald, CEO of Consilio. “This acquisition milestone significantly bolsters Consilio’s document review, legal process outsourcing, and Cyber Incident Response resources and unlocks new growth and development opportunities from which our employees and multinational client base will benefit.”

The Adecco Group will retain the legal staffing and legal permanent placement units of the Special Counsel business, which will be transitioned to LHH Professional Recruitment as part of its global Talent Solutions transformation.

The transaction is now closed and will be followed by an integration period of several quarters as the two businesses align systems and processes.
