Top 10 e-Reasons a (e-Discovery) Case Goes Wrong
Look for these potential problems and be better prepared
to avoid them!
- Forgetting that there’s proof on the computer, phone, or MP3 player subject to discovery.
- Thinking, “It won’t happen to me!” concerning lawsuits and discovery.
- Thinking that the data is really gone. Delete does NOT really delete!
- Not having a plan for electronic discovery or litigation holds.
- Not cataloguing e-files as confidential or for retention AND not following retention plans. (i.e. Don’t have a “delete-athon” after a suit is filed.)
- Negotiating with the other side without talking to an expert first.
- Not knowing how to deal with attorney privilege, review, and redaction with requests for your client’s
computer or computer evidence in discovery.
- Underestimating the size, prevalence, and duplicates in e-mail.
- Not knowing what spoliation or computer forensics means and how it can harm your case.
- Letting anyone, other than a computer forensic expert, near the computer. (Not all IT or e-Discovery experts are the same!)
