Relativity, a global legal and compliance technology company in partnership with Ari Kaplan Advisors, a leading legal industry advisory company today published the report, Maximizing Collections in an Evolving e-Discovery Environment.
Based on one-on-one interviews with in-house corporate e-discovery professionals conducted by Ari Kaplan, the report highlights the most pressing challenges associated with data collections and offers guidance on how in-house legal teams can adapt to an ever-changing and increasingly intricate e-discovery landscape.
Relativity engaged Ari Kaplan Advisors to speak with a cross-section of e-discovery professionals in a range of industries to better understand current challenges associated with data collection, how they overcome them and ways in which they expect the process to evolve. In an increasingly remote working environment, where corporations are deploying new tools at a rapid pace and driving data volumes to record levels, legal teams are responding by aligning talent and technology to ensure the application of effective and efficient data management protocols. Key findings from the report include:
"In-house e-discovery leaders are innovatively approaching collections and creatively adapting to a perpetually shifting litigation landscape," said Ari Kaplan, legal industry analyst, author of the report and principal of Ari Kaplan Advisors. "This research is designed to give law department professionals insights from their peers that help them make key decisions."
