Recognizing the importance of reducing costs and risks associated with electronic document production during litigation, audit, and regulatory investigation, the Firm has assembled a team of technical experts and attorneys who assist clients and their information technology staff in making strategic, effective and efficient decisions about how to manage E-Discovery within a reasonable budget. Our E-Discovery Task Force has saved clients hundreds of thousands of dollars in unnecessary E-Discovery costs.
RECENT CASES
- Saved a client $250,000 in estimated costs associated with pulling daily back-up tapes where not necessary in pending litigation;
- Saved a client tens of thousands of dollars in unnecessary forensic imaging of hard drives in threatened litigation involving more than 30 key custodians;
- Helped client develop internal litigation hold so it could control and limit the amount of data accessed by outside vendors and others during litigation, resulting in significant savings over time;
- Worked with client IT to develop internal e-mail journaling solutions for forward-going preservation rather than relying upon backup tapes which dramatically drive up preservation and production costs;
- Developed e-mail policy and employee training program for client targeted at reducing the volume and risky content of company e-mail communications, significantly reducing costs and risk associated with these communications;
- Coordinated on-line production and review of millions of pages of paper and electronic documents to be accessed by more than 20 co-defendants, severely curtailing E-Discovery costs and attorney review time for each;
- Created database repository of documents and discovery responses for repeated access and use in a host of similar cases brought against a single client, significantly reducing the client’s costs over time.
