Benefits:

There has been significant change in the current rules, procedures, and techniques involved in e-discovery, litigation holds, and metadata. The advent of social media has spawned alarm at data security and privacy. “E-discovery” laws and practices have been updated recently to reflect technological advancements in the practice. Today, every computer application and platform generates metadata. It has become critical that attorneys understand the impact of metadata whenever client-created electronic documents are at issue. Winning at e-discovery requires an understanding of disclosures, meet-and-confer, culling/reviewing/coding, and planning. This seminar provides guidance so attorneys and legal professionals can easily grasp the current requirements mandated under the law, revised e-discovery practices, concerns involving electronically stored information, and compliance required for the retention and destruction of electronically stored information.
