Product description
Are You Prepared for Litigation Involving Electronic Information?
Virtually every case today, from small claims to class actions, involves electronic information: emails, word-processing documents, spreadsheets and databases, metadata, digital photographs, and many other media. Electronic information can make or break a legal cause of action or a defence-or lead to a quick settlement.
Issues that did not exist a decade ago now play a major role in deciding the outcome of litigation:
- What constitutes electronic evidence?
- When do you need to retain it?
- When are you obligated to disclose it?
- How is it gathered?
- How do you use-or challenge-it in court?
Electronic Evidence and E-Discovery is an essential evidence law resource for anyone who participates in civil litigation or electronic information management.
