What are the Features and Benefits of e-Discovery and Legal Hold Solutions?

E-discovery is essential, not only for compliance reasons but also for legal teams to properly represent their clients. Lawyers who are unfamiliar with this process will find it increasingly difficult to perform their duties, as the number of documents stored in electronic formats continues to increase. Bar associations have already begun to emphasize the need to stay informed about the benefits and risks associated with this technology.

The importance of e-discovery is less and less discussed in the face of large-scale lawsuits, the outcome of which is increasingly based on minor information from an e-mail or documents.

With litigation on the rise and changing regulations and compliance requirements, companies spend a lot of time and money responding to the demands placed on them in the event of litigation.

Features and Benefits of e-Discovery and Legal Hold Solutions

eDiscovery Applications

As we have mentioned before, this technology is applied mainly with the aim of being used in the search for evidence in legal cases, in which this process is required to reach a verdict. And in these cases, eDiscovery can reduce the costs of copying and make it easier for litigants and the court to access relevant information.

But we also see how we can apply it for detailed monitoring of application processing activities, which can be used to troubleshoot and resolve errors or warnings in the application processes and their operation. The log can be generated and stored locally on the host or on the administrator's computer. or sent directly to an email address if the software allows it.

In this sense, different dashboards can also be generated that allow, in a simpler and more visual way, to know the types of applications used in a company, the open alerts, and the risk levels of the organization's applications. It could also show even the details of who are the users who use the applications the most and how.

Simplified management of legal suspensions

The temporary suspension of the normal treatment or the destruction of a group of contents or archival documents can be requested when an investigation is in progress or must take place within the framework of an audit or litigation. As part of the e-Discovery process, the legal hold helps ensure that key data is retained. As one of the leading ediscovery vendors Proteus Services makes it easier and more cost-effective to manage legal suspensions:

Increased flexibility: Suspend active content or archival materials to prevent their modification or destruction

Perform multiple holds:
Suspend as many records or content groups as needed

Return to normal: at the end of the procedure, "mass" cancel the suspension to reintegrate the content into the normal cycle of use (and continue to use it) or destruction (and avoid the risk of improper storage)

Legal Holds Across Different Repositories: Apply a legal hold to multiple contents and archival materials scattered across different disparate systems (“in-place management”) and control them centrally avoiding costly migration
