Brian Napper, Senior Managing Director and Leader of the Dispute Advisory Services practice at FTI Consulting, based in San Francisco, said, “Acknowledgement as a leading consulting firm in several categories, including litigation consulting, forensic accounting, global risk and investigations, business accounting and trial services, signifies the standards to which we hold our entire team. We continuously strive to provide deep value and excellence to all of our clients and are honored to be recognized with this prestigious award. Our clients' needs vary significantly and thus we are pleased that FTI Consulting's breadth of expertise in numerous services has been recognized.”

In addition to these awards from e-discovery practitioners, a number of legal and IT publications, including The National Law Journal and KMWorld, recently recognized FTI Consulting and its Ringtail software as leaders within e-discovery software and services.
