Crossing the E-Discovery Border: IT and Legal
The ease of creation, manipulation and storage of electronically stored information (ESI) has led to the convergence
of Legal and IT professionals in ways few could have envisioned.
In today's digital era, employee records, financial paperwork, and research and development memoranda live on hard drives, servers and back-up tapes, not in the bankers' boxes or file cabinets of yesterday. The ease of creation, manipulation and storage of electronically stored information (ESI) has led to an explosion of data, resulting in a new approach to document management. These factors have led to the convergence of legal and IT professionals in ways few could have envisioned five years ago. This has, in turn, led to a disconnect as few in-house attorneys understand the technical intricacies of IT and few IT professionals understand the complexity of procedural and discovery rules in the context of litigation. This web seminar will discuss what your company can do to begin to bridge the gap between IT and Legal and create a more productive and efficient environment. Topics to be covered include tips for reaching across the aisle when:
- Creating and enforcing document retention policies;
- Creating e-discovery strategies;
- Issuing litigation holds;and
- Following best practices to avoid sanctions.
