Having to handle ever-growing and diverse datasets, e-discovery teams are facing expanding costs and risks. But while some are centralizing their e-discovery operations to reign in inefficiencies, most still have an ad hoc approach to e-discovery, according the “Managing Litigation: E-Discovery Resources Survey Report.”
The report, sponsored by Bloomberg BNA and Catalyst Repository Systems, is a survey of 118 chief legal officers, general counsel and corporate attorneys. When asked to list their biggest e-discovery challenge, 42 percent of respondents cited managing the overall costs of e-discovery or keeping within budget, while 36 percent struggled either with managing the volume of e-discovery data or integrating e-discovery tools with other legal systems.
