KLDiscovery
KLDiscovery franchises enable operators to develop businesses selling electronic discovery (eDiscovery), governance, data management, data recovery, and technology solutions to corporations, law firms, and insurance companies. Franchisees create and maintain client relationships, enter into approved contracts, and operate under the KLDiscovery trademarks and proprietary system, while an affiliate (KLD Ontrack) provides the core services and handles invoicing, with royalties and fees deducted from client payments. The business model focuses on sales and client management in the legal and corporate data services market.
