About eDISCOVERY

What is eDiscovery?

Electronic discovery, or eDiscovery, is the process of preserving, collecting, and reviewing electronically stored information (ESI) in response to legal requests or investigations. The eDiscovery process is applicable to any company-owned data sources, including email, databases, and messages exchanged in collaboration tools like Slack, Teams, and Zoom.

  • Data preservation: Protecting ESI from spoliation via legal hold
  • Data collection: Gathering data in place into a legally defensible archive
  • Data review: Evaluate ESI according to relevance and attorney/client privilege

The functionality to perform fast and accurate document reviews in complex data sets is essential for businesses to meet their obligations and protect their interests during legal proceedings. The increasing reliance on cloud-based communication and data processing has made eDiscovery a crucial aspect of a modern legal professional’s workflow.

Everything you need to know about eDiscovery.

What are eDiscovery tools?

Cloud-based eDiscovery tools are SaaS applications designed to assist in preserving, collecting, and reviewing electronic documents (ESI) during legal proceedings and regulatory or internal investigations. Legal teams use these tools to efficiently handle and analyze large amounts of data using advanced analytics to simplify case management and data discovery.

How do eDiscovery tools work?

The typical electronic discovery workflow involves a number of steps to safely ingest, process, search, and review data. This work is usually carried out by legal departments, although other departments may be involved in identifying data or deploying software solutions. At every step, data protection and retention measures must be taken to preserve content in context, including metadata extraction where applicable.

Discovery solutions automate steps like collecting data from various sources, converting files to searchable formats, and applying redactions to make this process faster and easier. Advanced eDiscovery technology such as federated search algorithms, indexing and filtering mechanisms, and data analytics support project management and improve the user experience by reducing the time and expense of investigations.

How can you choose the right eDiscovery tools for your company?

Selecting the best eDiscovery platform and service providers depends on your company's needs and budget. Consider factors such as the scale of your data, the complexity of legal cases, and specific feature requirements to determine what eDiscovery capabilities are essential for your business and which is the best eDiscovery software for you. Collaboration with legal and IT teams to understand specific organizational needs is also crucial in making an informed decision and purchasing software that integrates into your existing stack with minimal disruption.

What kinds of businesses need eDiscovery tools?

eDiscovery isn’t just a concern for law firms, government agencies, or large enterprises. Businesses of all sizes can benefit from eDiscovery tools, especially if they regularly deal with large volumes of digital data, or have routine legal and regulatory obligations. Any entity can find value in proactively implementing eDiscovery tools to streamline and enhance their electronic discovery processes during litigation, compliance processes, or internal investigations. In fact, doing so before the need arises may be critical to preserving relevant data in the event that an eDiscovery investigation becomes necessary.
