History
Established in 1989, DOAR is the largest litigation support & trial services firm in the Northeast handling major litigation projects for Amlaw 100 law firms and Fortune 100 corporations.

Samuel H. Solomon founded DOAR in 1989 as a communications firm. Under the leadership of Sam Solomon, DOAR became the premier provider of litigation consulting services, nationwide. According to Mr. Solomon, "We have been very fortunate to be at the forefront of the tremendous wave of change occurring within the American judiciary. DOAR has been able to capitalize on the increasing use of technology by all members of the legal industry including attorneys, judges, court reporters and clerks. Our innovative technical solutions have resulted in major growth of the firm by more than 400% over the last five years."
Now, with over 200 employees, DOAR continues to experience steady growth and economic prosperity. In 2000, the corporate headquarters relocated to the 56,000 sq. ft. Litigation Support and Digital Court Facility, located at 170 Earle Avenue in Lynbrook, N.Y. Extensive renovation along with the construction of the Digital Court complex has resulted in a flagship headquarters for this technology innovator. Branch offices soon followed with a New York City office opening in 2003 and a Washington, DC office opening in 2004.
