Negligence and Product Liability matters often involve analysis of large amounts of structured data as well as a review of unstructured data that spans a large time-frame, often with individuals that have moved around within the organization or are no longer with the organization.

In addition, depending on how the organization structures and retains data, "records" could be scattered throughout the organization. Many of these cases get hung-up not on the merits of the case but rather on satellite litigation surrounding responses in discovery.
