ESI Planning - The key to successful eDiscovery

Jump To

Planning

The choices that are made at the forefront of any electronic discovery matter can have a paramount impact on the success of the process – whether you define success in terms of efficiency, lack of issues, cost, or delivery time.  As such, it makes sense to take the appropriate time up-front, to plan accordingly.

Vestige’s ESI planning process addresses:

  • Who will be responsible for identifying the relevant sources of discoverable digital evidence
  • How will those sources be identified and more importantly, how will relevant sources that are not as readily identifiable be discovered
  • The manner in which evidence shall be preserved and who will be responsible
  • Decisions surrounding review platforms and tools that will be employed by the review team
  • Understanding the various touch points along the way and how those transitions will be managed to: ensure integrity with the data, prevent issues that can impact the speed, quality and cost of the follow-on steps
  • The use of technology in culling, searching, reviewing and producing documents
  • Expectations around timeframes, responsibilities, error handling, communication and transition points
