Hershey Law is an employment law firm founded and managed by Brennan Hershey. The firm is dedicated to championing the rights of employees who have faced harassment, discrimination, retaliation, and exploitation in the workplace. Brennan Hershey and his team at Hershey Law undertook a monumental challenge.  Going up against a large corporation like this might have proved intimidating, especially when considering the time-consuming and resource-intensive traditional legal methods, which often put smaller firms at a disadvantage compared to well-resourced opponents.

Hershey Law used Eve, which they had integrated as a foundational technology, to provide crucial support throughout the complex litigation. Eve's capabilities were leveraged extensively, significantly enhancing the team's efficiency and effectiveness, not only in pre-litigation but also in the courtroom.

Real-Time Accuracy Reference During Testimony: Eve allowed the legal team to access deposition transcripts for impeachment evidence quickly, enabling the trial team to instantly verify statements and ensure accuracy and responsiveness in the courtroom.

‍Tracking Judicial Rulings: Eve helped track the judge's rulings on Motions in limine, enabling the team to quickly reference specific topics or quotes within the transcript to keep the case strategy on track.

‍Summarizing and Analyzing Daily Trial Briefings: Beyond live testimony support, Eve was instrumental in assisting with daily trial briefings by summarizing transcripts and directing the team to specific points of interest, enabling them to develop arguments in real-time and appear the next day prepared, fresh, and confident. 

‍Crafting Arguments and Preparing Witness Questions: Eve served as a valuable brainstorming tool, assisting in the crafting of compelling arguments and the preparation of practical witness questions for the following day, a process that was significantly faster and more efficient than manual methods. 

In addition to providing valuable in-court litigation support, the hours saved by Eve’s lightning-fast and accurate document generation — such as demand letters, complaints, and discovery responses — were reallocated to trial strategy. The integration of Eve played a crucial role in the successful outcome of the case, resulting in:
