Cruz eDiscovery’s comprehensive and documented Process – Highlights
- Interview client to identify relevant custodians
- Discuss with client’s IT administrators to ascertain the relevant repositories and databases
- Create litigation hold plan and send out preservation letters to identified custodians
providing specific guidance relating to subject matter of dispute. Also guidance to IT department of the litigant corporation sensitizing them about the potential issues/pitfalls in litigation hold such as retention of gold copy tapes and specific document destruction methods and halt routine destructions. Cruz eDiscovery preservation letter usually contains clear directives regarding preservation of potential discovery materials and electronic data, description of scope, definition of potentially relevant information and explanation of breadth of definition, caution re: under-inclusive versus over-inclusive documents. Based on the data collected, Cruz eDiscovery develops its data harvesting plans including if any forensics.
- Preparation of data for processing, de-duplication, culling based on key
word searches, boolean, proximity, fuzzy and wild cards. Triage the data
based on relevancy or sometimes even on legal issue.
- Preparation for review on a platform of the choice of law firm attorneys and agree on coding protocols
- Production – native, tiff or custom format on paper/tape/ or any other media
