In today’s post-Zubulake world, the corporate client is not the only party at risk. Attorneys and law firms are now potential targets of discovery sanctions. The courts have shifted the risks to include you, leaving you with the unenviable task of policing a company in which you do not work and/or in which you have no actual or direct line authority. Making matters worse, its your client, and you want to keep it that way.

We can help.

As an independent expert in the field who has a client relationship with you, we work with in-house resources to assure compliance with your discovery requests and instructions. We help because we gain your client’s trust by working with in-house personnel wherever and whenever practical and because we reduce the cost of discovery almost immediately by using our expertise to design less onerous, less expensive alternatives to the opposing party’s discovery requests. Further, we testify to the court in support of our strategies.
