Why Do Law Firms Require e-Discovery Tools?
Recent amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure ensure that assessment and handling of electronically stored information happens early in the litigation process. So, compared to the early days when lawyers used to ponder and bury themselves in countless documents to find the one relevant document they need the most, it simply does not make sense to waste precious resources analyzing such large volumes of data. Also, it is tremendously expensive to pay attorneys for this task which could easily be employed as an electronic tool that could produce better results faster and more cost effectively. Here is where electronic discovery can definitely assist law firms. Electronic discovery, also known as e-discovery or ediscovery, is a process wherein electronic data can be swiftly searched, located and secured with the aim of using it as evidence for any type of legal case, whether criminal or civil.
Effective ediscovery tools bring about a substantial reduction in both time and cost spent on electronic discovery. They can easily identify, collect, review and produce information that is required by attorneys. They can also significantly reduce risks because workflows are streamlined and enable early case assessment (ECA). e discovery tools that can easily identify and collect electronically stored information (ESI) can assist in cracking cases early. An effective ediscovery tool could add great value to any law firm by:
· Providing intuitive, profoundly scalable monitoring and reporting features in the e-discovery lifecycle
· Offering total process support to enable not just collection of information but also processing, searching, culling down, reviewing and production of that information when required
· Supplying an early understanding of case facts and enabling perceptive insights into the case
· Reducing review time considerably, thus ensuring substantial time savings
· Removing non-essential information early on, which further reduces review time
· Facilitating and expediting review work for lawyers
· Reducing time spent finding and collating pertinent data for the case
· Providing accurate results
· Preserving the integrity of the original data
· Offering information in the desired format
· Being cost-effective
Give your law firm the electronic data discovery advantage, and see your cases move toward more favorable results.
