Electronic Discovery: From Start to Finish

Electronic Discovery: From Start to Finish

The importance and complexity of e-discovery has grown dramatically over the past decade. Not long ago, the average production in a civil case was in paper and ran only a few thousand pages. Not any longer! It is not unheard of for a complex case to require the production of millions of pages of documents. This program will provide attendees with an update on the latest trends, the basics of ESI (Electronically Stored Information) and a strong foundation of the challenges and strategies that every litigator and in-house counsel must know.
