12:45 Outsourcing E-Discovery – Panel moderated by Adam Cohen, Senior Managing Director

The high cost of the review phase of electronic discovery has extended the outsourcing of document review and coding beyond the borders of the United States, with document review projects being handled by teams located in India. These practices promise great cost-savings, but have raised many questions in connection with lawyers’ ethical obligations, privilege and confidentiality concerns, and more fundamentally, about the effectiveness of the review in the context of overall litigation strategy. Our panel of experts consisting of clients, outside lawyers, and providers of outsourcing services will identify and debate these issues on the cutting edge of electronic discovery cost-containment strategies.

2:55 Dynamic Databases – Eric Matrejek, Director

Most of the cases and big news stories in electronic discovery are about e-mail. However, enterprise databases that contain critical corporate information on a wide range of issues, including detailed financial data and human resources information, are starting to receive more attention from electronic discoverers. These constantly updated and changing databases present challenging issues for electronic discovery, including how to preserve dynamic information, what to do about metadata, and the protection of proprietary software. Our panel of experienced experts will talk through the relevant caselaw as well as the practical and technical ways to handle dynamic databases effectively as part of the universe of "electronically stored information" subject to discovery.
