Bridgeway eDiscovery™
eDiscovery, or electronic discovery, is the processes, tools, and team used to provide electronic document evidence to a requesting party in a civil or criminal legal proceeding
Electronic document evidence results when electronic discovery processes are applied to electronically stored information, or ESI. ESI may be unstructured (e-mail, word documents, spreadsheets, presentations) and structured (databases within accounting systems, document management systems, drug trial tracking systems, customer support systems, etc.). ESI resides in workstations, laptop computers, file servers, and handheld devices.
To maintain integrity and quality, electronic discovery processes must comply with key standards:
These standards assist lawyers, their clients, technical staff and courts with discovery challenges unique to ESI compared to paper documents. If evidence is created through these forensically sound processes, responding parties can be confident they are delivering responsive, admissible documents. In contrast, breakdowns in electronic discovery processes can lead to spoliation of evidence, to which the court can respond with a range of sanctions.
Management tools such as eDiscovery dashboards help teams monitor and optimize electronic discovery processes within the constraints of resources, time, and dollars. Bridgeway eDiscovery includes a Dashboard to help oversee and manage the entire process. The eDiscovery Dashboard monitors and reports the progress of each step from a single view, making it possible to identify problems early, improve quality and efficiency, thereby controlling and reducing cost.
