Ciara’s Top Three Tips for eDiscovery Clients

  1. Engaging an eDiscovery provider as early on in the piece as possible so that they can assist you to make sound decisions impacting time, cost and overall efficiency for the life of the matter.
  2. If you think there is a faster way of doing a task, there probably is. Discuss your document management processes with your eDiscovery provider to reach the most efficient outcome.
  3. Keep your litigation database as reflective and organised as your every day processes. This means that your database should be able to help you quickly identify documents you have collected, referred to and intend to rely on with the click of a button.
