Welcome
Corporations around the world are facing increasing eDiscovery and electronic investigation demands.With more frequent litigation, increased regulatory supervision and a rise in white collar crime, many companies are focusing on reducing the cost and improving their control of the discovery process, both through in-sourcing some discovery and putting added demands on their legal services providers.
This newsletter includes a recent Gartner research paper which examines in detail why enterprises can no longer afford to approach eDiscovery as if they were still doing business in a paper-based world. It also presents a solid case for companies to engage legal counsel who have embraced technological innovation, particularly with regards to electronic discovery.
There is also an article that shares some of Nuix's insights about the key elements companies must address to achieve repeatable, defensible and measurable in-house eDiscovery.
These two articles provide food for thought for anyone struggling with rising eDiscovery and indeed, compliance and regulatory investigative demands.

- Predicts 2010: Regulatory Changes and Business Demands Will Drive the Long-Delayed Adoption of Legal Discovery Technology

- Legal professionals' long-standing aversion to technological change is coming to an end, especially in the area of electronic discovery (e-discovery). Law firms, the enterprises that engage them and the technology vendors that sell to both should address the demands of a radically different future.
- Law firms and service providers to the legal profession must change their business models from leveraging billable hours to leveraging knowledge to recognize the impact of technological change.
- Enterprise legal clients are demanding, and will continue to demand, improved service and reduced costs.
- E-discovery costs are one of the most important areas to control, and e-discovery software will be a key component in reducing these costs.
- Changes to e-discovery processes inside corporations will affect the providers of outside legal services.
- Law firms must change their fundamental business models to adapt to legislative, regulatory, technological and economic factors.
- Enterprises should require their external legal counsel and external legal service providers to show them a road map for the use of technology to reduce the cost and increase the efficiency of legal discovery and legal review.
- Enterprises whose law firms fail to respond to the demands for technology efficiency in discovery should engage different counsel.

- Nuix Insight Paper: Enterprises in highly regulated and litigation prone industries are leading the charge to bring eDiscovery in-house, inside the firewall.
- Eddie Sheehy | Stephen Stewart
- For many companies, in-house eDiscovery not only makes financial sense, but also enables a controlled first review and an early case assessment which can be completed within hours or days instead of weeks or months. Read more about four key elements that Nuix believes companies must address to achieve repeatable, defensible and measurable in-house eDiscovery.
- Proactive Communication Monitoring is a trend that leading corporations and government agencies are starting to embrace in highly regulated or high risk environments.
It is a subject that CIOs and risk executives would be well advised to skill up on as they face the reality of ever-increasing quantities of unstructured electronic communication produced by and received by the typical company these days. With up to 80 percent growth per year in the electronic data volumes of many organisations and with that data stored in multiple places and in a myriad of formats, taking control and being at the ready to interrogate that data if required should become a core business practice.
