Part 2 of 8: Financial Crisis, Litigation and Electronic Discovery complete webcast series.

The subprime mortgage crisis has already surpassed the S&L crisis of the 1990s in terms of the number of cases filed. Affected organizations may reduce risk and improve the efficiency of their discovery efforts by ensuring that consistent and repeatable processes to manage discovery demands are in place. A Discovery Response Plan helps achieve this goal by providing legal, IT, document management, compliance and risk management teams with the necessary framework for responding to electronic discovery requests. This webcast will analyze the role of Discovery Response Plans, with a focus on readiness for subprime litigation and investigations.

Part 3: Creating Effective Discovery Response Teams for the Financial Services Market

Thursday, October 16, 2008 | 1:00 PM ET

Part 3 of 8: Financial Crisis, Litigation and Electronic Discovery complete webcast series.

Meeting discovery obligations in a defensible and efficient manner is one of the primary objectives in almost all complex litigation, and it is especially important in subprime-related matters. Successful response to complex electronic discovery requests requires collaboration and transparency among key personnel across multiple departments within an organization. In-house counsel must work closely with colleagues from IT, compliance and records management to identify, preserve, and collect potentially relevant electronically stored information. Establishing a highly effective Discovery Response Team (DRT) that can perform effectively during all phases of e-discovery is critical. This webcast will look at the optimal structure of DRTs, as well as the roles and responsibilities of individual team members.
