University of Michigan - College of Law

The University of Michigan recruited Epsilonium to tackle the challenge of architecting a solution to catalog the largest index of refugee and asylum case law in the world. However, the case collection needed to be expanded from 4 English-speaking countries to 30 different countries and languages.

This database of case law was to be used by professionals around the world in the research of refugee and asylum case law. International Judges, lawyers, and scholars can create an account and easily upload a new case into the database.

Epsilonium configured the solution by redesigning the integrated system from the ground up, building the community featuring a streamline application to replace the pre-processing. The site’s huge database application encompasses Adobe PDF with multiple word processing technologies and features an expanded, concept-based search capability.
