Legal Holds News & Articles

A recent trend among the eDiscovery industry is that more companies are bringing the process of search, discovery and document management in house. Companies that once saw eDiscovery as third-party expense left to off-site experts have now come around and have begun implementing cost-saving solutions that allow them to take control of their eDiscovery needs.

Today, Kazeon Systems (news, site) announces the availability of its fourth generation eDiscovery software for use by corporations, legal service providers and law firms. Kazeon's solution solves a wide range of customer challenge such as in-house eDiscovery, internal investigations, audits, legal hold retention management and GRC.

Recently, we had the opportunity to talk with Karthik Kannan, Kazeon’s VP of Marketing and Business about v4 and the future of eDiscovery.

CGOC, a practitioners’ forum focused on records retention and preservation practices, and Huron Consulting Group, a provider of financial and operational consulting services, released the results of a “first-of-its-kind survey” on legal holds and eDiscovery practices.

The survey focused on corporate practices for preserving information in litigation, identifying custodians of data, communicating legal holds, interviewing custodians and collecting potentially relevant data.
