Not worth the risk: Firms are e-Discovering

June 25, 2009 - PRLog -- Not worth the risk: Firms are e-Discovering

Sydney, Australia – 26 June, 2009


Law firms need to invest in e-Discovery tools now, or risk paying for it in the future.

In March in year, the Federal Court of Australia delivered a series of e-discovery provisions under Practice Note 17 aimed at allowing for better efficiencies and lower costs during litigation cases – ultimately ensuring lawyers have access to sufficient documentation to build a strong case.

With the proliferation of electronic files created by corporations around the world, the organisation and management of documents has become increasingly onerous. E-Discovery tools exist to make this process simpler and prepare companies for litigation.

IQPC Australia’s e-Discovery Australia brings together Litigants, Judges, and IT professionals in an interactive environment to; discuss implementation processes and protocols, storage and preservation of information, and educating in-house counsel on managing e-Discovery tools to cut costs.
