In Episode 4 of Data Discourse, Pete Mansmann and Bill Saccani focus on the essential process of e-discovery and its role in managing electronically stored information in legal cases. Throughout this episode, you’ll get a comprehensive look at the strategies and best practices needed for effective e-discovery - the need for careful data management and strategic approaches to ensure successful litigation outcomes.
Pete and Bill cover the risks of both under-collection and over-collection, stressing that inadequate data identification can lead to excessive, irrelevant information that complicates the review process. This can result in increased costs and delays, as failing to gather all necessary data upfront often means scrambling to meet deadlines later, thus compromising the thoroughness of the review.
Another significant topic covered is the value of iterative search strategies - why we advise against using overly broad search terms that can generate an unmanageable volume of irrelevant documents. Instead, Bill recommends conducting refining search terms to narrow the dataset, ensuring that only pertinent information is reviewed.
