NYC area eDiscovery technology
expert provides business executives an overview and essential
guidelines for the electronic discovery process—in a new article
from Messaging Architects
HOBOKEN,
N.J., June 20, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ --
Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and
eDiscovery technology expert, released a new article offering best
practices designed to help businesses navigate the complex
eDiscovery process.
eDiscovery can prove both time-consuming
and costly. However, by incorporating best practices, organizations
can ease the process and even turn eDiscovery into a competitive
advantage.
The article begins with a brief overview of the basic eDiscovery
steps. It then provides several essential guidelines to ease the
process. These include proactive data management, developing a
sound eDiscovery strategy in advance of an eDiscovery request,
carefully ensuring defensible preservation of data, and leveraging
legal technology.
"eDiscovery can prove both time-consuming and costly. However,
by incorporating best practices, organizations can ease the process
and even turn eDiscovery into a competitive advantage," stated
Greg Smith, Vice President of
Services Delivery at Messaging Architects.
Below are a few excerpts from the article, "Guidelines for the
Electronic Discovery Process: A Primer for Corporate Leaders."
Proactively Manage Data
"Proactive organizations implement solid information governance
ahead of time to ease the process, beginning with an inventory of
all data sources in the organization. Next, a data quality
assessment highlights outdated information and duplicates.
Resolving data quality issues before a legal matter arises will
make it easier to identify relevant data."
Develop an eDiscovery Strategy Ahead of Time
"Without a strategic approach, your organization can face
delays, increased costs, and even legal sanctions. Therefore, do
not wait until an eDiscovery request lands on your doorstep to
establish an eDiscovery plan. Instead, build a clear and detailed
eDiscovery policy now, before a legal matter appears on the
radar."
Preserve Relevant Data
"Failing to preserve relevant data can lead to accusations of
data spoliation, which can severely impact a case. Thus, as soon as
litigation is reasonably anticipated, organizations must move
quickly to place legal holds preventing deletion or modification of
potentially relevant information."
Leverage eDiscovery Technology Wisely
"Automated legal holds represent just one example of useful
eDiscovery technology. For instance, cloud-based eDiscovery
solutions offer scalability and efficiency at a lower cost.
Additionally, automated early case assessment (ECA) plays a
critical role in helping legal teams rapidly identify and
prioritize relevant data."
Additional Guidelines for the Electronic Discovery Process
When faced with an eDiscovery request, the organization must
respond promptly and efficiently, ensure defensible data
collection, and maintain a clear chain of custody for all data. The
eDiscovery experts at Messaging Architects combine best-in-class
legal technology solutions with years of experience to help you
smoothly navigate the eDiscovery process.
