In many companies, there is a fundamental disconnect between the technology resources available to the core business platform and to the legal department. With the exception of document retention and e-discovery, legal departments typically receive little investment and support from company IT.

With limited resources yet bearing significant responsibility, there is no margin for error when selecting the right tech solution. Here’s how to start.
1. Embrace collaboration. A good way to accelerate the understanding of the facts and law surrounding a case is to set more brains to work on it. Electronic collaboration and digital file-sharing mean speed, convenience, accountability, transparency, and control of important content and litigation templates. They also reduce the need for costly travel and off-site meetings.
