Pyrrho, GDPR, banking compliance and US-UK differences at the Relativity Spring Roadshow
I have written about the Relativity Spring Roadshow and linked to the products announced at it. I turn now to the four sessions which preceded CEO Andrew Sieja’s keynote. I will not try and summarise each of the panels, not … Continue reading
The main messages from eDiscovery Ireland 2012 in Dublin

UK and US EDisclosure / EDiscovery and Compliance Commonality at IQPC London

A reminder about some ediscovery sources plus a mini-conference on video
My plan to update the reference section on my website over Christmas was thwarted by the time it took to move from Windows to Office 2011 on the Mac – one of those jobs for which you allocate an hour … Continue reading
IQPC Exchange in Munich: Information Retention and eDiscovery in Europe
The civil law jurisdictions of mainland Europe have no discovery tradition as it is understood in common law countries like the US and UK. The IQPC Information Retention and eDiscovery Exchange in Munich was an opportunity for corporate counsel to … Continue reading

ILTA 2010 wrap
This is my third (and last) article about ILTA 2010 Strategic Unity which closed in Las Vegas last week. My first article was a scene-setter, designed to give the flavour of the event and to explain why I thought it … Continue reading
ILTA 2010 in Las Vegas: Strategic Unity, Defensibility and the Cloud
ILTA is the International Legal Technology Association. I am now back from ILTA 2010 Strategic Unity in Las Vegas, which was as busy and as good as ever. The red hot bloggers and tweeters were reporting on events as they … Continue reading
Australian ediscovery round-up
My conclusion after my recent visit to Sydney was that every jurisdiction which engages in ediscovery thinks that it is behind the others. This is certainly not true of Australia, and Master Whitaker and I were not merely being polite … Continue reading
Missing my Dragon
Jonathan Maas of Ernst & Young says that I missed a trick in my account of the laptop which died en route to Las Vegas and which I had to replace and set up in order to do a webinar … Continue reading

Everything and everyone at the IQPC Information Retention and E-Discovery Management Conference
I reached IQPC’s Information Retention and E-Discovery Management Conference 2009 just as the first speaker stood up on Wednesday morning, feeling rather like Phileas Fogg as he burst into the Reform Club with seconds to spare. Although I had not … Continue reading
Welcome to FTI Technology as a sponsor of the e-Disclosure Information Project
It is very good to welcome FTI Technology as a sponsor of the e-Disclosure Information Project. FTI Technology is a segment of FTI Consulting, Inc., a global business advisory firm, and brings immense resources to bear on the acquisitions and … Continue reading

I occasionally like, at the end of the week, to write about things which are not directly related to e-discovery or are, at least, aimed at the lighter side. Charles Christian has saved me the trouble this week with an … Continue reading

Litigation support providers from the relatively small UK market made a good showing at LegalTech in New York this year. Amongst them was Legal Inc who hosted a panel of luminaries moderated by Charles Christian of Legal Technology Insider. LTi … Continue reading

Getting new recruits into electronic disclosure
Despite having apparently been misunderstood when speaking about the subject, I remain enthusiastic to encourage more people, and especially women, into electronic disclosure. Recession may be a good time to gain experience in a new and growing area. You know … Continue reading
Take the best and discard the worst from US litigation
The Vikings brought with them some habits which were deplored by their hosts, but they also brought technology which we turned to our advantage. We do not much like some of the practices in US civil courts, but we can … Continue reading
Ernst & Young Forensic Party

Attenex round every corner
Attenex is not the only provider of heavy-duty processing and analysis software for chewing through very large amounts of electronic data, but the name has become a kind of shorthand for that function. As Hoover is to vacuum cleaners, so … Continue reading
Litigation Forum: Facing the Future
Legal Week’s Litigation Forum this week, sponsored by Ernst & Young, was rather different from the (many) others I have been to this year. They have been e-disclosure conferences with litigation practice and procedure as a context. This week’s event … Continue reading
E-Disclosure conferences give plenty to think about
Those who expect a daily addition to this collection of notes and essays (and I know there are a few such) may have wondered if I have run out of things to say from the paucity of posts recently. Far … Continue reading
