Information Governance for e-Discovery

Information Governance for e-Discovery addresses how electronically stored information (ESI) is created, received, captured, organized, replicated, managed and ultimately disposed of as part of a routine course of business. Fios’ consultants work with clients to help them better understand the policies and practices of the organization’s ESI and facilitate collaboration between the legal, IT, records management and other key departments.

Fios’ e-Discovery Technology Consulting & Assessment services focus on analyzing an organization’s existing and prospective technologies and their ability to address various phases of e-discovery.

  • IT Infrastructure Readiness
    Align the legal requirements for managing ESI for e-discovery with the organization’s technology infrastructure.
