NEW YORK – March 6, 2026 – Epiq announced today its participation at Legalweek 2026, taking place from March 9 to 12 at the North Javits Center in New York City. At this year’s conference, Epiq showcases how legal teams can achieve more through Epiq AI™ agentic solutions, Epiq Advisory™, and Epiq Services.  

Epiq has been named a finalist for the Legalweek Leaders in Tech Law Awards in the Best Use of AI in eDiscovery and Litigation. The recognition reflects the impact of Epiq AI for Review (formerly Epiq AI Discovery Assistant™), which enables legal teams to increase review speed, accuracy, and cost efficiency. 

The company’s presence at Legalweek builds on two recent company announcements on agentic AI. 

Epiq announced the expansion of Epiq AI, enhancing decision-making, reducing risk, and increasing productivity across legal and compliance use cases. The offerings, built on the Epiq AI Laer™ platform and available through the Epiq Service Cloud, include agentic AI solutions for eDiscovery, privilege review, antitrust, compliance, investigations, and more. 

Epiq also recently announced expanded AI capabilities within Epiq Discover™, a leading eDiscovery platform. These enhancements enable legal professionals to conduct fact research up to 45 times faster and automate over 80% of review. 

“We’re embedding AI directly into the workflows legal teams rely on, so they can surface facts faster, with confidence, and make better decisions while reducing complexity and risk,” said Roger Pilc, President and General Manager of Legal Solutions at Epiq. “Legalweek is an opportunity to show how leading legal technology, expertise, and services come together to deliver value.”
