EDRM Announces Webinar Series on "Bringing Everyday E-Discovery In-House"

SAINT PAUL, MN–(Marketwired – Jul 30, 2015) – EDRM, the leading standards organization for the e-discovery market, announced today a new series of webinar events, sponsored by LexisNexis. The webinar series is a reprise of three popular panel sessions conducted live at the recent LegalTech® West Coast 2015 conference in San Francisco.

Webinar Series Description: “Bringing Everyday eDiscovery In-house”:

“Everyday eDiscovery” may sound benign, but with dockets comprised mainly of small to medium matters, staggering amounts and types of ESI cropping up even in routine cases, and each outside law firm approaching eDiscovery differently, seemingly everyday eDiscovery can create serious risks and enormous cost overruns.

The speakers in this trio of webinars will offer practical guidance on three sets of issues every organization considering bringing everyday eDiscovery in-house ought to address:

• Whether to bring the work in-house or outsource it;
• How to bring everyday eDiscovery in-house without disrupting business, or destroying internal and external relationships; and
• How to outsource eDiscovery without losing control over quality and consistency.

The first of the series, held July 28, 2015, focused on Everyday eDiscovery: Bringing It In-House or Outsourcing It. The presentation is now available for viewing on the EDRM Webinar Channel.

Part two of the series, Practical Pointers for Bringing Everyday eDiscovery Into Your Organization, will be presented live at 1 p.m. CDT on August 25, 2015.

The final webinar in the series will focus on Outsourcing Everyday eDiscovery: Managed Services Providers v Outside Counsel and will take place at 1 p.m. CDT on September 22, 2015.

The EDRM Webinar Channel offers free access to over 40 recorded webinar events on a wide variety of practical e-discovery topics, including e-discovery workflows, collecting from mobile devices, conducting cross-border e-discovery, technology assisted review, understanding dark data, and a number of technology and product demonstrations. EDRM is constantly developing new webinar topics and content. For details visit www.edrm.net.
