E-Discovery Leads Products Charge at ILTA



http://ow.ly/6a4gh

This is an article by Evan Koblentz on law.com on the LTN blog.

This article discusses the ILTA conference being held in Nashville this week.

As the article points out, "Early Case Assessment (ECA), predictive coding, and search/data review applications will dominate the e-discovery product announcements at this week's International Legal Association Trade show in Nashville, Tenn.

Katey Wood, e-discovery analyst with Enterprise Strategy Group in New York is quoted in the article. "Even if they (law firms) throw bodies at the problem with contract reviewers and [outsourcing], it's not possible for them to review all the data in some cases under court timeframes. Technology has to improve, and law firms have to evolve."

Software vendors recognize this trend and the article outlines some specific major e-discovery product announcements expected this week, including some being made by partners of SRM Legal.  Joe Bartolo, one of the author's of this blog is attending this conference, and is pleased to report that the turnout at tonight's vendor event the Music Hall of Fame was very well attended.
