According To This New Report, eDiscovery Market Expected to Nearly Triple in Five Years: eDiscovery Trends

According to a new market research report, the eDiscovery market is estimated to grow from $7.89 Billion (US) in 2016 to $22.62 Billion by 2021, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 23.4% from 2016 to 2021.

The report titled E-Discovery Market by Solution (Legal Hold, Early Case Assessment, Data Processing, Data Production), Service (Consulting, Implementation, Training & Support, Managed), Deployment Type (Cloud, On-premises), and Vertical – Global Forecast to 2021 is published by MarketsandMarkets (who apparently did not have a title size limit when determining the report title).

Here are a couple of notable trends in the report over the forecast period with respect to TAR and cloud adoption:

  • TAR Adoption: Technology assisted review and data production is expected to show significant adoption rate in the E-Discovery Market. Technology assisted review and data production is “gaining traction among E-Discovery solutions as these solutions empower organizations by reducing risk and saving the time and money spent on managing & reviewing large sets of documents effectively and efficiently”.
  • Managed Services Growth: The managed services segment is expected to witness the fastest CAGR during the forecast period from 2016 to 2021, owing to organizations’ focus on decreasing costs associated with E-Discovery document storage infrastructure maintenance. With the help of managed services, users become free from establishing and maintaining infrastructure, uncertainty over compliance adherence, and developing scalable and capable technologies for E-Discovery use, owing to which, this service type has the highest adoption rate.
  • Cloud Deployment: The cloud deployment type is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period; the cloud deployment type is also projected to witness the highest demand due to increased cost reduction as compared to on-premises solution deployment, as cloud E-Discovery solutions help customers to maintain a conservative legal department budget by slashing costs associated with data storage infrastructure maintenance.

As noted in the report description, the ecosystem of the E-Discovery market consists of on-premises solution providers such as IBM Corporation, FTI Technology LLC, kCura LLC, and ZyLAB; cloud solution providers such as cicayda,LLC, CloudNine, Logikcull, and Lexbe; and service providers such as Ernst & Young Global Limited, Advanced Discovery, D4 LLC, and Navigant Consulting, Inc. Stakeholders of the market include litigation service providers, legal analytics vendors & consultants, and law firms.

Court Denies Defendant’s Motion to Overrule Plaintiff’s Objections to Discovery Requests

Defendant Not Required to Use Predictive Coding by Court: eDiscovery Case Law

Regardless how the election turned out last night, eDiscovery case law marches on…

In the case In re Viagra Products Liability Litigation, 16-02691 (N.D. Cali., Oct. 14, 2016), California Magistrate Judge Sallie Kim, noting that other courts had declined to force a party to use predictive coding, denied the plaintiff’s motion to force the defendant to use predictive coding instead of its preferred approach using search terms.

Case Background

In this multi-district litigation (MDL) against drug company Pfizer regarding its highly popular drug Viagra and alleged correlations to incidences of melanoma, the plaintiffs urged the Court to order the defendant to use predictive coding with the plaintiffs’ input to identify the locations of relevant information and the responsive ESI from those locations. The plaintiffs argued that TAR and/or predictive coding is a more sophisticated tool than the traditional search term or search query approach, that using that suggested approach would save time and money for both sides and indicated that they wanted representatives from both parties to participate in process of creating and working with the search process in this iterative process.

The defendant offered stiff opposition to the plaintiff’s request (sorry, I couldn’t resist) proposing instead that it use search terms to identify potentially relevant documents. The defendant described its preferred methodology as an iterative process – though not the same iterative process as TAR and/or predictive coding – where the defendant tests search terms and validates them using rigorous sampling of potentially responsive documents, verifying that the search terms yield high rates of response. In the defendant’s proposed process, the parties would exchange lists of proposed search terms and the defendant would agree to run any search terms that appeared on both parties’ lists.

The defendant pointed out that the plaintiffs did not cite to any case law in support of their proposal to require the defendant, over its objection, to use TAR and/or predictive coding. At the hearing on the matter, the plaintiffs conceded that no court has ordered a party to engage in TAR and/or predictive coding over the objection of the party.

Judge’s Ruling

Adding to the plaintiff’s concession, Judge Kim noted that “[t]he few courts that have considered this issue have all declined to compel predictive coding”.  Judge Kim cited Hyles v. New York City, stating:

“As the court reasoned in Hyles, the responding party is the one best situated to decide how to search for and produce ESI responsive to discovery requests.  The responding party ‘can use the search method of its choice. If [the propounding party] later demonstrates deficiencies in the . . . production, the [responding party] may have to re-do its search. But that is not a basis for Court intervention at this stage of the case…[I]t is not up to the Court, or the requesting party . . ., to force the . . . responding party to use TAR when it prefers to use keyword searching. While [the propounding party] may well be correct that production using keywords may not be as complete as it would be if TAR were used . . ., the standard is not perfection, or using the ‘best’ tool . . ., but whether the search results are reasonable and proportional.”

In denying the plaintiffs’ motion, Judge Kim concluded: “The Court finds Hyles well-reasoned. Even if predictive coding were a more efficient and better method, which Pfizer disputes, it is not clear on what basis the Court could compel Pfizer to use a particular form of ESI, especially in the absence of any evidence that Pfizer’s preferred method would produce, or has produced, insufficient discovery responses.”

So, what do you think?  Should a court ever require a party to use a particular method to search for and produce ESI?  Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.

ELECT to Have Drinks Again With Me – On Me!: eDiscovery Trends

If you’re in Houston, you have a big decision to make today.  No, not that decision!  I’m talking about whether or not to have drinks with me!  I’m buying!

*Well, technically, my boss is buying, but we won’t quibble…

After making a big “splash” back in September with our last “drinks with me” event at the ARMA Live! Conference & Expo for Records Management and Information Governance professionals (mostly because there was a torrential downpour at the start of that happy hour), we’ve decided to do it again in Houston, home of the headquarters of CloudNine.

“Drinks with Doug” is a sporadic gathering of information technology, business, and eDiscovery professionals in various cities who casually meet and discuss all things eDiscovery over a few drinks with me.

This iteration of “Drinks with Doug” will be held at The Tasting Room – CityCentre, 818 Town and Country Blvd #100, Houston, TX 77024 next Tuesday, November 15 from 6:00-8:00pm.  The Tasting Room offers a variety of exquisite wines for guests to enjoy.  It also has a special place in my heart as it’s where my wife and I spent several of our early dates when we first started dating.  :o)

Space is filling up quickly, so if you plan to be in Houston that day and would like to attend, please send your RSVP ASAP to Jessica Moore at jmoore@cloudnine.com.  To improve your chances to be included, please send the email from your work email address, not from a “gmail” or other personal account.

Hope to see you there!

So, what do you think?  Do you like eDiscovery?  Do you like wine?  Are you in Houston?  If you answered “yes” to all three questions, then you should attend!  Regardless, please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.

Here’s Where You Can View Last Week’s Webinar and More: eDiscovery Trends

Last week, I participated in a presentation, conducted by ACEDS and sponsored by CloudNine, which provided an overview of the evolution of electronic discovery technologies and also included a short demonstration of two tools within this growing category of offerings: Heureka and CloudNine.  If you missed the webinar, here is where you can still check it out.

Heureka Founder & Chairman of the Board Ron Copfer and I presented the webinar, where we illustrated the latest in discovery automation technology from data creation through defensible destruction.  Click here to view the webinar and also to download the slides.

It’s been a busy few days for me.  Thursday was the above mentioned webinar.  On Friday, I spoke at the Texas Bar CLE program eDiscovery in Your Case in Austin, participating in the luncheon presentation eDiscovery Software for Solo and Small Firms with Kathy Owen Brown of DLA Piper and Gene Albert of Lexbe.  As I noted on Friday, I wrote an article titled How SaaS Automation Has Revolutionized eDiscovery for Solo and Small Firms to tie in with our session.

The article covers how we’re in the age of automation and cloud based discovery, how eDiscovery technology has evolved, takes a comparative look at Craig Ball’s small firm Edna challenge of 2009 and his reprise from earlier this year and how the emergence of cloud-based automation has given small firms much more complete solution choices than were available in 2009.  It also covers key components of a SaaS automation solution and typical pricing options for such a solution.  The end result is better options than ever before for solo and small firms looking for a full-featured eDiscovery solution that fits with their budget.

If you would like to check out the article, feel free to contact me and request a copy.  Simply send an email to me at daustin@cloudnine.com and say that you’d like a copy of the SaaS automation article that I wrote for the Texas Bar (or words to that effect) and I’ll be happy to send you a copy.  My pleasure.

Today, I’ll be participating in an interview with Sharon Nelson and John Simek on a podcast for the Digital Detectives program on the Legal Talk Network.  I’m a big fan of their program and a big fan of both Sharon and John personally (and, if you read our blog regularly, you know that Sharon’s blog Ride the Lightning is a regular source for interesting stories about cybersecurity in the legal industry).  I’m looking forward to participating and hope you all will check out the interview.

So, what do you think?  Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.

How SaaS Automation Has Revolutionized eDiscovery for Solo and Small Firms: eDiscovery Trends

I’m in Austin today, speaking at the Texas Bar CLE program eDiscovery in Your Case.  I’m excited to be included in the program, participating in the luncheon presentation eDiscovery Software for Solo and Small Firms with Kathy Owen Brown of DLA Piper and Gene Albert of Lexbe!

As a precursor to the session, the Texas Bar asked that we write an article for the session (and by “asked”, I mean that they told us that articles are mandatory for each session) and they suggested that the article be 10-30 pages in length.  So, because I don’t write enough (apparently), I accepted the challenge and wrote an article titled How SaaS Automation Has Revolutionized eDiscovery for Solo and Small Firms to tie in (nicely, I hope) with the session we’re presenting.

The article covers how we’re in the age of automation and cloud based discovery, how eDiscovery technology has evolved, takes a comparative look at Craig Ball’s small firm Edna challenge of 2009 and his reprise from earlier this year and how the emergence of cloud-based automation has given small firms much more complete solution choices than were available in 2009.  It also covers key components of a SaaS automation solution and typical pricing options for such a solution.  The end result is better options than ever before for solo and small firms looking for a full-featured eDiscovery solution that fits with their budget.

The 15 page article (right in the middle of the suggested range – no need to show off, right?) will be provided to the attendees of today’s CLE, but if you would like to check it out, feel free to contact me and request a copy.  Simply send an email to me at daustin@cloudnine.com and say that you’d like a copy of the SaaS automation article that I wrote for the Texas Bar (or words to that effect) and I’ll be happy to send you a copy!  Enjoy!

So, what do you think?  Do you think that solo and small firms have better choices for eDiscovery solutions than before?  Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.

The Cowen Group 2016 eDiscovery and Litigation Support Salary Report: eDiscovery Trends

A couple of weeks ago, we covered the Robert Half 2017 Legal Salary Guide with a specific focus on litigation support and eDiscovery salaries.  This week, we’re covering results from the Tenth Annual Salary Survey from The Cowen Group.  Let’s take a look at this latest opportunity to push for that raise you’ve been wanting.

This year, there were 244 responses received from law firms (36% Large Law respondents, 22% Mid-Law), service providers (19%), corporations (19%) and government (4%), with over 50 organizations providing compensation information for their eDiscovery teams to bolster and corroborate data received from individual survey respondents.  Here are a few other noteworthy findings from the 15 page report.

  • New Positions: The Cowen Group predicted that approximately 245 new positions will be created in 2017, with the strongest growth and demand taking place in the vendor/service provider sector with particular emphasis being placed on technical professionals (60 new hires) and project managers (86), as well as growth positions such as data scientists (6), forensic professionals (20) and customer/client success experts (7).
  • Median Salaries Largely Flat: As was the case in the past two annual reports, median salaries remained relatively flat, with only a 0-2% median increase over last year’s numbers. The Cowen Group attributed the flattening of median salaries to several factors, including increased reporting from mid-law firms, growing hiring trends for eDiscovery positions in both mid-sized organizations and middle-market geographic locations, and differentiation in base salaries between law firm, corporate, and vendor market segments. One notable exception with regard to flat salaries was the eDiscovery attorney group, who reported a 16% median increase over base salaries from the previous year.
  • Bonuses Up: As compared to base salaries, annual bonuses appear to be increasing steadily across the board and average bonuses amounted to higher percentages of base salaries this year, especially for Manager (approximately $10,080 as compared to $7,660 in last year’s report), Director, (approximately $16,100 as compared to $9,890) and Attorney roles (approximately $29,830 as compared to $12,809).
  • eDiscovery Professionals are Certifiable: The Certified eDiscovery Specialists (“CEDS”) remained the most commonly held certifications across all titles and roles. The Relativity Certified Administrator (“RCA”) and LexisNexis LAW Prediscovery (“LAW”) were the most widely held technical certification across several positions as well, with RCA providing a slightly positive influence on salary in the analyst and project manager roles.

The report also provides the minimum and maximum reported salary for each primary position for this year, as well as the mean, median, low (25%) and high (75%).  Median salaries were charted for each position from 2008 through 2016.  It also reports on geographical and organizational trends and provides a data sheet for each of the five primary positions, with skills for success and top certifications.

This 15 page guide is also FREE and is available here.  Check it out.  Maybe you need a raise?

So, what do you think?  Do the numbers surprise you?  Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.

This is a Non-Political Post: eDiscovery Trends

At the outset, I feel that I should state that, given that this post is about the Hilary Clinton emails and the FBI handling of them.

In his latest post (E-Discovery Lessons from the Huma Abedin E-Mails), Craig Ball takes a look at the eDiscovery implications regarding the handling of the Huma Abedin emails and his distaste for FBI Director James Comey’s handling of them.  Craig states: “‘Reckless’ doesn’t begin to describe Comey’s self-indulgent decision to release information about a situation he clearly does not yet grasp, in a manner that elevates Jim Comey above longstanding Justice Department policy and the integrity of a Presidential election.”

Nonetheless, regardless of political leanings, Craig notes that his post “will not be a political screed, so while I always welcome critical and substantive comments on anything I write, please hew to the e-discovery aspects of same.  Please.”  Of course, at least one commenter (so far) still questioned the political intent of his post, characterizing Craig’s comments as “partisan”.  Not surprisingly, there were already 20 total comments on Craig’s post in less than a full day (including mine).

Craig’s post, and the comments back and forth are well worth reading.  One of the eDiscovery discussion points related to the cross-collection correlation of email messages – which Craig wrote about here and we covered here, with back and forth discussion between Craig and our CTO, Bill David – and the challenge of doing that when the Clinton emails were produced to the State Department in paper (yes, paper) format.  There was also a discussion as to whether the Clinton claim that “more than 90% of those emails should have already been captured in the State Department’s email system” was true and could have eliminated most of the email matching effort to determine whether there is significant new information in the Abedin emails that bear investigating.

And, to think this latest round was initiated because of our social media gone wrong poster child, Anthony Weiner.  Some people never learn to think before they hit send.

Bill Dimm provided a link to Hilary Clinton’s fact sheet regarding the emails in one of his comments, which answered the question as to why Clinton produced printed copies to the State Department instead of ESI, noting that the Foreign Affairs Manual of the State Department provides this guidance with regard to how to preserve e-mail records:

“Until technology allowing archival capabilities for long-term electronic storage and retrieval of E-mail messages is available and installed, those messages warranting preservation as records (for periods longer than current E-mail systems routinely maintain them) must be printed out and filed with related records.”  [5 FAM 443.3].

So, our government is just as behind as the rest of the legal profession (if not more) with regard to production formats.  Big surprise.

We’ve already discussed one area where eDiscovery might impact the coming election.  Maybe this is another.

So, what do you think?  Are you sick of hearing about the election yet?  Me too!  Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.

Don’t Be Afraid, It’s Only – eDiscovery Horrors!

Today is Halloween!  For the seventh year on this blog, it’s time to try to “scare” you with tales of eDiscovery (and now, cybersecurity) horrors (because, after all, we’re an eDiscovery blog).  Let’s see how we do this year.  Are you afraid?

Just when you thought you knew everything about Shakespeare, it turns out he may have had a co-writer.  You can thank big data analytics for that bit of knowledge.

What about this?

Speaking of Shakespeare, you won’t be able to retrieve one of his most famous phrases in most eDiscovery databases.  Here’s why.

Or this?

This plaintiff was sanctioned in July 2015 for failing to preserve text messages for four key custodians, but the sanction was vacated in January of this year.  What changed?

How about this?

Apparently, it appears that the parties (one of whom may someday be an appellant) appreciated the thought that appending a wildcard after “app” would be an appropriate application of the wildcard in that approach (but doing so might retrieve as many as 300 non-responsive search terms).

Or maybe this?

The most famous judge advocating the use of technology assisted review (TAR) has refused to order the defendant to use TAR in this caseWhat the hell is going on out here?

Have you considered this?

This defendant received “punitive sanctions in the amount of $3,000,000” for the “intentional and admitted deletion of emails” by the defendant’s Senior Vice President of Sales.  Ouch!

Finally, how about this?

Imagine having 2.6 terabytes of data (comprised of 11.5 million documents) stolen from right under your nose, exposing possible illicit offshore holdings of global political leaders and celebrities with which your firm was involved.  If you’re at that firm, it makes you want to jump in the nearest canal!

Scary, huh?  If the possibility of multi-million dollar sanctions, humongous data breaches or reviewing a lot of non-responsive documents because of bad searches scares you, then the folks at eDiscovery Daily will do our best to provide useful information and best practices to enable you to relax and sleep soundly, even on Halloween!

Of course, if you seriously want to get into the spirit of Halloween, click here.  This will really terrify you!

What do you think?  Is there a particular eDiscovery issue that scares you?  Please share your comments and let us know if you’d like more information on a particular topic.

Happy Halloween!

Florida Judges Say State Needs More eDiscovery Mediators: eDiscovery Trends

You’d think I lived in Florida as much as we’ve covered it lately, both good and not so good.  This story, for the first state to require technology CLE for attorneys, could be true in many other states as well.

In the Daily Business Review article Judges Zero In on E-Discovery as Promising Niche for Neutrals, written by Samantha Joseph (subscription required, but it’s free), a panel of state judges said there’s a big untapped opportunity for neutrals to specialize in electronic discovery.

Over 3,300 certified circuit court mediators practice in Florida, according to data from the state Supreme Court. But few specialize in eDiscovery, which was the focus of amendments to the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure last year as courts mapped out litigants’ obligations to preserve electronically stored information (ESI).

“This would be a very good area for our mediators to become educated on,” said Palm Beach Circuit Judge Lisa Small.

Small joined Magistrate Judge Sarah Willis and Circuit Judges Meenu Sasser, Daliah Weiss and Jessica Ticktin (all with the 15th Judicial Circuit of Florida) for a panel discussion Friday, moderated by David Steinfeld, Palm Beach Gardens attorney and founder of Everything e-Discovery LLC.

“Every single case is an e-discovery case now,” Sasser said. “That’s how we live our lives. Everyone is communicating through Facebook, emails, texts.”

Sasser, a finalist for a vacancy in the Fourth District Court of Appeal and the first sitting state court judge in Florida to implement a standing order on ESI, created a meet-and-confer obligation among litigants “to discuss in detail” their clients’ computer systems, software and other factors that could impact eDiscovery, delay cases and add thousands to court costs.  Sasser said administrative judges across the state contacted her to discuss the order, with plans to implement similar policies.

The judges on the panel all agreed on the idea of appointing a special magistrate to handle detailed, complex and time-consuming ESI issues, much like at the height of the housing crisis when some magistrates focused solely on foreclosures to help clear crowded dockets.  The judges said skilled neutrals would help them manage uniform calendar work – about 80-90 percent of which include discovery disputes, primarily involving electronic files and would potentially save litigants in complex litigation thousands of dollars.

So, if you’re a certified court mediator in Florida looking for an opportunity for more work, eDiscovery education could be the ticket.  Now you know on what you can spend (at least) those three required hours of technology CLE!

So, what do you think?  Does your state need more experienced eDiscovery mediators?  Maybe you could change your history!  Please share any comments you might have or if you’d like to know more about a particular topic.
