The Seven Deadly Sins to Avoid When Implementing an eDiscovery Archive System

By Neil J. Squillante | Wednesday, April 20, 2011

Coming today to TechnoFeature: A lawsuit here, a lawsuit there. Pretty soon you're talking real money. An archive system that automatically captures electronically stored information (ESI) across your organization can significantly reduce the costs of discovery and make it defensible to boot. Your outside counsel will also approve as they will gladly trade fewer billable hours for a reduced risk of sanctions. But given the number of vendors and solutions available, you can easily spend a boatload of capital on a system that fails to meet your needs. In this TechnoFeature, legal project management expert Paul Easton and eDiscovery expert Allen Gurney discuss the seven most common pitfalls involved in implementing an ESI archive system. More importantly, they explain how to avoid these pitfalls. In other words, required reading for all in-house and outside litigation counsel.

Review: FileCenter Pro Plus 7

By Kathryn Hughes | Tuesday, April 5, 2011

Coming today to TechnoFeature: A lawyer is to a document as an actor is to a stage. It's the vehicle through which you perform. But what if you can't get to the theater (find a document on which you need to work)? Actors have understudies. You don't. A document management system can help you prevent show stoppers. In this TechnoFeature, Hamptons real estate lawyer Roy Greenberg reviews Lucion's FileCenter Pro Plus 7, a desktop document management system designed to help law offices become paperless. Roy thoroughly evaluated its features — automated document management, search, optical character recognition, PDF file creation, Outlook, scanner, and other integrations, and more. How well does FileCenter Pro Plus work. Read Roy's in-depth review to find out.
