Electronic Data Discovery

Electronic data discovery has quickly become mainstream in civil discovery. Recent surveys confirm that more than 90 percent of all documents produced since 1999 were created in digital format. With over 75% of electronic data having been created within the last twenty years, much of today’s electronic information will likely remain in its original format.
