March MCLE - Bringing Discovery In-House: Leveraging Internal Resources to Achieve Value and Minimize Costs

Teaser here

March 28, 2012

7:30 AM - 9:00 AM

Overview

There has much discussion lately about "bringing litigation and discovery in-house," but little explanation of what exactly that means. For example, how much can be done in-house? What should be done inside and what should be left to outside counsel? Can a legal hold be issued immediately and efficiently? What's the process for picking counsel? What about discovery vendors? This session will provide actual options and enable attendees to leave with a plan.


The faculty will outline a detailed process for managing litigation and discovery in-house, specifically designed to minimize risk. The session is designed to be valuable for both smaller legal departments that don’t have much internal resources as well as large law departments that oversee a lot of litigation.
Specifics to be covered include:
*      How to manage a litigation portfolio as well as specific cases
*      The steps that must be taken upon "anticipation of litigation" through trial
*      Managing outside litigation counsel
*      Information governance and how it impacts discovery
*      Determining how much – and what exactly – to bring inside    
*      Doing more with less – leveraging resources to accomplish goals cost effectively
