Ediscovery Trends

Was just reading the Clearwell Ediscovery blog and have to agree that the most significant rule of the new ediscovery pilot plan is one that creates an ediscovery liaison.  This pilot program is only being tested in the Seventh Circuit Court, but is an important milestone for the progress of electronic discovery. Often in litigation, the scope of preservation and other requests are far too burdensome.  Document management software is a requirement for any business that is likely to be involved in litigation.

Of course a company like Clearwell provides software that makes it easy to quickly cull and preserve responsive documents.  Their software provides excellent document management during the course of litigation.  Their search technology allows document review costs to be reduced drastically, so document review software can be used more effectively.
