Legal Holds Resources

Judge Scheindlin's Zubulake V decision was an early warning and the Coleman v. Morgan Stanley verdict the final warning. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure have been revised to formally address e-discovery and in the process, have made it a nearly certain element of litigation. Moreover, the rules place a very early focus on existing retention practices and the preservation and discovery of information. For companies without modern enterprise retention programs and robust legal holds processes, a thoughtful gap analysis and remediation plan is in order.

Atlas LCC software manages the legal holds and collections process for in house litigation organizations. It provides a consistent and transparent process for scoping and documenting legal holds, sending hold notices and reminders, planning and conducting interviews with key players, planning and conducting collection from individuals and systems, inventorying evidence collected and searching to selectively export for review. Designed on the Zubulake Checklist, Atlas LCC makes it much easier to manage multiple concurrent holds and collections and meet more exacting process standards, which reduces litigation costs and risks. Redundant handling and processing can be eliminated to reduce costs and time lag. Atlas LCC enables counsel to defend their legal hold and collection process and provides immediate, complete and structured information needed to certify completeness.
