“Every day, legal professionals are faced with tough problems that introductory TAR sessions rarely help them address, and without sufficient information to use their TAR tools effectively, the potential cost and time savings may be seriously diluted,” said Tredennick. “I am very excited to help bring together such a distinguished group to provide insights into the practical use of TAR.”
The challenges of e-discovery review result not only from the explosion of data, but also from the constraints imposed by rolling data collections, tight deadlines and the need to start review right now.
Topics addressed during the program will include:
How do you deal with real world problems like rolling uploads, endless random documents and the need to wait for an expert?
How do you decide when you have enough responsive documents, and what do the courts require?
How do you determine whether the “black box” (TAR technology) worked and what kind of proof is needed?
What role do magistrates play and how much transparency is required?
How much time and money can you save over linear review and what kinds of cases are suitable?
The uses of TAR for information governance, investigations, productions and other purposes.
