Let Your Expert Help with Your Discovery Protocol
The Discovery Protocol is a crucial aspect of our e-Discovery and forensic services. With our expertise, we guide you through strategizing, negotiating, and implementing the Discovery Protocol. A well-crafted protocol plays a pivotal role in retrieving your electronically stored information (ESI). Key components of a thorough Discovery Protocol include:
- Date Filtering. Define a begin date and end date filter to focus on the relevant timeframe, minimizing unnecessary legal review.
- Comprehensive Data Sources. We compile a list of all relevant data sources to collect ensuring that no potential evidence is overlooked. This commonly includes phones, email accounts, computers, and social media accounts.
- Data Types. Specify the types of data needed for the case, such as text messages, emails, photos, voicemails, and computer files. With comprehensive coverage, you won’t miss any hot docs!
- Sender/Recipient Limitations. Reduce unresponsive items, and limit the production of text messages and emails to or from specific individuals involved in the case.
- Search Terms and Phrases. By incorporating targeted search terms and phrases, we efficiently filter and extract data most relevant to the legal matter, saving time and resources.
- Privileged Communications. The Protocol includes measures to identify and cull privileged communications, safeguarding sensitive information from being inadvertently disclosed.
- Method of Production. We work with you to define the preferred method of data production, tailored to your specific needs and in compliance with legal requirements.
By adhering to a well-structured Discovery Protocol, we ensure that the process of collecting electronically stored information is efficient, focused, and aligned with your legal objectives. This approach maximizes the chances of identifying critical evidence while minimizing unnecessary costs and delays.
