Our Insights on eDiscovery

Today is the start of Legaltech® New York (LTNY), and, for the ninth(!) year in a row, eDiscovery Daily is here to report about the latest eDiscovery trends being discussed at the show. Over the next three days, we will provide a description each day of some of the sessions related to eDiscovery to give you a sense of the topics being covered. If you’re in the New York area, I encourage you to check out the show – there are a number of sessions available and over 160 exhibitors providing information on their products and services, including our company, CloudNine at booth #310-312.

You wouldn’t think that the font you use on a document could expose it as a fake document, but in this case, it did.

Hard to believe that Legalweek begins one week from today and Legaltech (the primary conference within Legalweek) begins the next day. Legaltech always has a lot to offer every year, between interesting sessions and a busy exhibit hall, but the exhibit hall will be a little busier this year, due to something unique that we have put together at CloudNine — TED-style talk sessions right from our booth with our inaugural NineForum series!

I should probably put in a disclaimer that this is not a political post – I would write about this regarding which political party this involved. It just so happens that the latest high-profile redaction flub happens to be tied to the Russia investigation and Paul Manafort. Regardless, it leaves me asking the question: when will they ever learn?

Believe it or not, this is the seventh year for the University of Florida E-Discovery Conference. As usual, the panel of speakers is an absolute who’s who in eDiscovery. And, if you act quickly you can save as much as 75% to attend!
