eDiscovery

Managing the rapid expansion of electronically stored information can provide your company with more efficient and cost-effective litigation.

Electronic discovery (eDiscovery) is becoming a critical component of litigation and records management. Approximately 93% of all business records are created and stored electronically with 50% never reaching printed hard copy form. Unwieldy and improperly managed growth of electronically stored information can be costly in litigation. eDiscovery extends beyond electronic documents created in applications such as Microsoft Word or Excel, to include, email, text messaging, telecommunication records, voicemail, recorded video, blogs and the actual user computers for mining of electronic “trails” for activity, actions and deleted information. eDiscovery extends beyond personal computers to encompass cell phones, Blackberries, iPhones, other PDAs, servers, online data repositories, data replication and data backups.

Our eDiscovery attorneys and professionals counsel business and technology executives both in a reactionary phase and in a proactive approach to eDiscovery. The reactionary phase involves providing the appropriate response measure for impending or current litigation. The proactive approach aligns your business objectives and workflow to better track, identify and manage the lifecycle of electronically stored information through legally defensible policies and business practices.

We provide assistance to our clients through all phases of eDiscovery including: information management, identification, preservation, collection, processing, review, analysis, production and presentation.
