IE Discovery identifies and acquires discovery data and documents, both electronic and paper, from any and all sources to support your organization’s litigation needs.
The benefit to you?
Our unwavering attention to detail throughout the collection process ensures that your documents are tracked in a secure environment and remain in the original condition, format and order collected. This reduces the potential for spoliation claims by opposing counsel, while allowing you to focus on specific litigation issues. Some of the collection services we offer include:
Identify Information Sources
Identification of information sources and custodians is imperative in collecting the correct responsive information for production to opposing counsel. IE Discovery employs a uniform, fully documented interview process of potential custodians of relevant hard-copy and electronic information, to develop a comprehensive list of all potential information sources uncovered. This process includes exploration and identification of potentially relevant files on certain directories (file shares, mail systems, etc.), document and data triage, and immediate on-site collection, when necessary. We can also act as liaison between counsel and your organization's IT department, to assist both groups in collection of responsive information in an expedient manner.
Chain of Custody Preservation
Spoliation claims can occur when your organization cannot demonstrate due diligence in handling documents and data to minimize the potential for tampering. IE Discovery provides tracking and documentation from original source of all information through production, including preparation and execution of supporting affidavits, when needed.
