Is Your Discovery Data Good Enough For The Court? Nov 13, 2012

Show notes

A court may not accept your Discovery data as evidence unless you can prove its integrity. How do you know if it has been tampered with and thus is no longer authentic? How do you deter malicious behavior and remove ambiguity over the authenticity of your records? How do you prove the 'what', 'when', and 'who' of any digital and/or non-digital event?

Guest: John M. Facciola Title: Magistrate Judge, The District of Columbia

Balancing EDiscovery Cost Containment Vs. Risk Nov 12, 2012

Show notes

Cost containment implies both reducing costs and making them more predictable. As the volume of data rises, legal departments face increasing pressure to reduce their budgets, while law firms are under pressure to deliver greater value by offering more services at lower fees and providing greater visibility of the costs incurred throughout the entire discovery process. The need to balance costs against risks is so crucial, that corporations are willing to live with a certain degree of quantified and managed risk in order to reduce their cost of e-discovery. So, how can costs be significantly reduced and yet balanced against risk?

Complex Case Law eDiscovery: Is Predictive Coding a Panacea? Oct 24, 2012

Show notes

When it comes to complex cases, the costs imposed by the eDiscovery process often outweigh any benefit to the litigants. Consequently, computer-assisted predictive document coding is gaining popularity, as it promises to reduce the time and money spent on e-discovery by employing software to review large volumes of electronic documents and determine their relevance, thus drastically reducing the number of documents that still need to be reviewed by human eyes. However, such software depends on algorithms, so the coding process still requires attorney involvement at the outset to train the software to recognize relevant documents. Another issue is that the documents so identified, must be acceptable to both sides. Is predictive coding worth it, or will it just create additional complexity and false positives?

Show notes

Under mounting cost pressures, corporations and law firms are increasingly "in-sourcing" certain aspects of e-discovery using do-it-yourself (DIY) and service provider choices now available in the marketplace.

Which aspects of e-discovery are best left to outside counsel? What is the right mix of in-sourcing and use of outside counsel?
