“Your guess is that between 2,500 and 5,000 documents are involved, but whilst you can more or less measure paper files by eye, it is hard to assess what is on the CDs. The enthusiasm with which the expert speakers have infected you has evaporated a little with the realisation that, whilst your existing knowledge of Part 31 CPR has now been topped up with a theoretical understanding of metadata, FSA best practice and multi-jurisdictional Disclosure, you do not have a clue how to start applying what you have learned to simple Disclosure of the boxes of papers and disks on your desk.”
This is an extract from an article called e-Disclosure – the basics, one of a series of articles which can be found on my web site at www.chrisdalelawyersupport.co.uk
