Litigation & Disputes
General counsel and external counsel are faced with an increasingly complex data landscape in litigation and other disputes. Vast amounts of traditional data sources, emerging data types, data-driven or technical processes, and computer code, all potentially relevant to a matter, regularly require development of a strategic, technical approach to the data sources. Developing this approach with data experts at the onset of a matter can significantly reduce the time, cost, and data risks associated with a litigation or dispute.
Legal Operations
Corporate legal departments have been in a rapid cycle of change due to advances in technology, expectations of increased efficiency, and an evolution of the legal department from cost center to value creator. A legal department’s intelligent implementation of change can result in improved productivity, profitability, and client relationships.
