Orange Paper Highlights and Compares Time, Risk and Cost Factors in Electronic Discovery

(Salt Lake City, UT)  Orange Legal Technologies, a leading provider of one source litigation, audit, and investigation support services for law firms and corporations seeking insight on electronically stored information, today announced the release of a new Orange Paper that provides legal and IT professionals a comparative view of both traditional and advanced approaches to the conduct of the core electronic discovery tasks of analytics, processing, and review.

Abstract on Time, Risk, and Cost in Electronic Discovery

Balancing time, risk, and cost in the conduct of electronic discovery continues to be one of the greatest challenges faced by legal and information technology professionals today. Technology advances, laws which further define electronically stored information (ESI), and current economic conditions all serve to increase both the importance and complexity of meeting this challenge of “balance”.

With this balance in mind, this new Educational Orange Paper provides a high level overview of three approaches to electronic discovery and how each of these approaches affects the time, risk, and cost of the conduct of electronic discovery. The three approaches to electronic discovery addressed in this paper include:

  • Traditional Method #1 - Processing All Data to TIFF or Native for Full Linear Review.
  • Traditional Method #2 - Indexing, Culling, and Processing Data for Native Review.
  • Advanced Method - Indexing, Culling, 1st Pass Reviewing, and Processing Data for Review.

“Understanding these approaches and how they impact the key factors of time, risk, and cost of electronic discovery should help legal and IT professionals not only determine the best theoretical electronic discovery approach, but also determine the best electronic discovery approach for their specific needs” states Bret Laughlin, CEO and President of Orange Legal Technologies. “At Orange Legal Technologies, we are committed to helping our clients understand the options they have available, which option is best for their specific situation, and providing them the flexibility of our OneO® Discovery Platform to help them meet any and all of their analytics, processing, and review needs - as they see them.”
