of document review, substantive legal research, contract management, and

and prior to that was a prosecutor in the U.S. Air Force. He has counseled a
wide variety of companies on record retention programs, compliance with
electronic discovery, and implementing programs to reduce risk associated
with the generation and retention of electronic records. He is also a
frequent speaker at national and international conferences and CLE programs
on electronic discovery legal developments and best practices.

David Steiger, author of the ABA-published The Globalized Lawyer,
remarked, "I have been following and writing about the legal outsourcing
industry since its inception. David is well recognized as a leading expert in
the legal outsourcing industry. No one has visited or counseled more legal
outsourcing providers than David. His move speaks volumes about the industry
as a whole and American Discovery in particular."

"This is a very exciting development for American Discovery and a great
coup to hire one of the world's foremost authorities on E-Discovery and legal
outsourcing," said Eric Puno, who will continue to serve as the President of
American Discovery. "I have known David for more than a decade and he has a
proven track record of leading teams of attorneys around the world and
delivering superior results in high stakes matters. He knows the legal
outsourcing business as well as anyone in the world, having advised numerous
legal outsourcing providers in both the Philippines and India concerning best
practices. He has been a valued client of American Discovery and has the
necessary experience and judgment to lead American Discovery's continued
growth."

"The number of companies that are using legal outsourcing to obtain high
quality work at reasonable rates is amazing," said David Hickey. "With a deep
and unrivaled talent pool on both sides of the Pacific, American Discovery is
uniquely positioned to deliver the highest quality services in the industry.
Each of our associates is either admitted to a bar in the US or admitted to
the Integrated Bar of the Philippines. Over the course of my career, I have
been fortunate to work with and learn from outstanding attorneys in the Air
Force, Skadden and most recently at Winston. The associates and management at
American Discovery have the same level of professionalism, dedication, and
attention to detail that I have come to expect and clients demand."

Gerald W. Wheeler, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Legal Officer of del
Rey Global Investors, commented, "David is an excellent attorney who I
frequently turned to while he was with Skadden and Winston. Under David's
