How to Effectively Prepare for and Manage ESI in Civil Litigation

This presentation takes a sample case that can be seen in most any area of law that involves ESI today, for both Federal and State matters. We’ll show you the sample RFP(Request for Production) that has been sent by opposing counsel, then discuss the different terms, definitions, and implications of this request. After discussing the RFP for this specific set of collected data, we’ll go over three sample workflows that are commonly used by sophisticated law firms for early analysis and culling in preparation for review. The three workflows will be constructed based off these variables:

1. number of custodians

2. percentage of relevant documents

3. knowledge of data prior to review

4. the need for ECA (early case assessment) utilization

(*other workflow criteria will apply)

Ultimately, this presentation is meant to show that given the slightest change in the Law Firms knowledge of the data being collected and/ or the knowledge of expected % relevance for production, both factors can affect what workflow should be used for an efficient discovery and review process.

The speakers will be doing a panel style discussion. The presenters will be Alex Marjanovic from DTI, Greg Mahoney from DTI, Susana Del Cid from Beckman Coulter, and Catherine Mirhady from Stradling Yocca.
