Sound information governance practices within corporate legal departments (CLDs) offer strategic advantages from many standpoints, including corporate compliance, cybersecurity, litigation-readiness and departmental efficiency. For these reasons, many information governance solutions being used in law firms are finding their way to corporate servers or rather, cloud instances of corporate legal repositories.

There are unique challenges in deploying information governance tools traditionally designed for the law firm environment. With careful planning, keen design, an overall understanding of the process flow for the various constituencies within the CLD, effective communication and education campaigns, these challenges can be overcome to deliver efficient and effective information governance solutions in CLDs.
