The solution enables users to have complete visibility into the litigation support and e-discovery process -- a task that many Fortune 2000 companies have been asking about for years."

About the session:

Discovery case management and legal hold processes are on the forefront of discussion in the industry. Using a combination of stories from the trenches as well as a hands-on demonstration of Exterro Fusion, Chad Papenfuss, VP of Operations at Certus EDM, LLC, and Bobby Balachandran, CEO of Exterro, will discuss how automation and integration of e-discovery processes can empower law firms and corporate legal departments to mitigate risk, control costs, reduce turn-around time and gain a competitive edge over opposing counsel. They will also discuss how legal teams can take more control of the litigation hold and discovery workflow management processes through automated and managed processes which are consistent and defensible.

Session participants will walk away from the session knowing effective legal hold management techniques including how to proactively prepare for litigation holds, leverage technology to mitigate risks and reduce costs, monitor compliance and dynamically manage data maps. They will also learn effective discovery management strategies including how to achieve hands on electronic discovery management, how to standardize and streamline end-to-end workflows, how to integrate collection, processing, review and production and how to manage vendors and internal resources and how to reduce the risks and costs associated with electronic discovery.

Also at ILTA, Exterro will demonstrate its comprehensive litigation-support lifecycle-management solutions at Booth #204. To set up a private appointment, call 503-594-0920. For more information, go to www.exterro.com.
