Litigation data lifecycle management is not just for large complex cases. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and many State Civil Procedures Rules and Regulations currently require that lawyers understand certain physical aspects of their client information management infrastructure. This requirement also applies to information creation and disposition procedures for individuals or corporations.

We understand all the technical aspects of e-Discovery. In December 2006, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure were amended to clarify the discovery obligations that parties have when it comes to identifying and producing responsive information. Specifically, counsel now has heightened responsibilities when it comes to understanding and disclosing information about a client's information management infrastructure and document management tools. Many states are following suit by modifying analogous state civil practice laws and rules to comport with the federal requirements.

We help counsel deal with the sometimes daunting discovery challenges that involve email, large amounts of spreadsheets and documents. We can show you ways to identify needles in the haystacks that will make the data management aspect of taking on larger and more complex cases a breeze.
