Evidence, privacy and proportionality at Lawtech Europe Congress in Prague
I have no particular ambition to write up events as soon as they finish. Distance lends perspective, and anything worth reporting at all will be as valuable a couple of months later. The Civil Procedure Rules of England and Wales … Continue reading

Discussing eDisclosure round the table at the Brewery
The fact that we enjoyed ourselves at the TGCI eDisclosure event in London did not make it any less of a serious forum for discussion. The round-table format, the complete absence of PowerPoint slides, and the invitation to delegates to … Continue reading
Nuix and the Global Offshore Money Maze – tools and skills go beyond conventional eDiscovery
Whilst this story has Nuix software as its inspiration, the point is a wider one – where do you start when you don’t know where to start on a large collection of data? A combination of software and shoe leather … Continue reading

Short eDiscovery updates to 13 October

LawTech Europe Congress in Prague on 12 November

The Nuix Information Governance Forum: a defensible deletion case study of massive proportions

The Nuix Information Governance Forum: Defining the IG Problem

Back from the Nuix Information Governance Forum in Palm Beach

Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong claiming eDiscovery attention

Innovation and informed risk-taking are an eDiscovery duty
A speaker at a Nuix dinner prompts the thought that eDiscovery innovation lies in simply doing what the rules and codes of professional conduct require anyway. By chance, Ralph Losey has written on that subject this week. Risk is a … Continue reading

Nuix snaps up Jim Kent as MD for Europe as 7Safe falls to PA Consulting
Looking at my headline for this article, I see that its necessary brevity includes two implied assumptions, neither of which is necessarily accurate. The “as” which connects the two halves of the headline (“Nuix snaps up… as 7Safe falls”) implies … Continue reading

Time to take the next steps: a Hong Kong eDiscovery conference

The Gartner Magic Quadrant for EDiscovery Software and other EDiscovery Market Matters

Filling the day and nearly getting filled with lead
One of the influential figures in US ediscovery gets very cross at references to the “ediscovery market”, as if the commercial connotations somehow sully the purity of the context of rules and judges and justice which the ediscovery / e-disclosure … Continue reading
Epiq Systems and Huron Consulting as Angels for US-UK e-disclosure play at LegalTech 2011
An “angel” in theatrical terms is someone who puts money into a play or film. Many productions would not happen without such support. I have already mentioned the judicial play which we are putting on at LegalTech and which consists … Continue reading

Australian ediscovery round-up

Far and wide eDiscovery at the Chilli IQ conference in Sydney
Sometimes an unconscious theme develops during conferences. Appropriately, perhaps, given the “IQ” element in the organiser’s name, the point which recurred in Sydney was the use of human intelligence in parallel with the processing power and clever technology to get … Continue reading
