Employing high-tech, bespoke discovery strategies can be case-dispositive, leading to important discovery phase “wins” for clients that place them in the strongest position possible as matters proceed to summary judgment or trial. At Boies Schiller Flexner, our attorneys combine deep technical knowledge with significant experience utilizing e-discovery in litigation to provide strategic and innovative e-discovery management and information governance advice to our clients in litigation, arbitration, and investigations.
Our lawyers are Certified Information Privacy Professionals (CIPP/US) with experience in all areas of information governance and e-discovery, including computer and internet forensics, data breach preparation and response, AI-assisted document review, discovery motion practice, 30(b)(6) strategy, complex privilege strategy, mobile device and communication app complexities, trial preparation, and trial presentation.
As counsel for multinational clients with disputes and data located in jurisdictions around the world, we are adept at cross-border litigation and arbitration, navigating the manifold data privacy laws that impact cross-border discovery, including GDPR. We prepare and negotiate strategic electronically stored information (ESI) protocols with an eye on managing costs without affecting trial preparedness; conduct and manage data preservation, collection, review, and production; defend and challenge e-discovery practices in court; manage and conduct multilingual cross-border document review projects; and negotiate third-party vendor contracts to save our clients millions of dollars and protect the privacy and integrity of their data. Clients rely on our technical knowledge to deliver efficient and compliant document preservation, collection, and review plans for a given matter. Additionally, the firm’s attorneys deploy their skills in the context of offensive discovery, ensuring our clients always have access to every relevant document in our opponents’ possession.
We also work closely with clients to prepare litigation readiness programs, including protocols for the collection, preservation, review, transfer, and deletion of data as required by law in different jurisdictions.
