Electronic evidence disclosure has become complicated due to the many steps necessary to perform accurate processing. Up until now, outside vendors would coordinate with attorneys while performing these steps in processing a company's data in order to prepare responsive information. Company data could go through numerous databases before reaching the attorney for review.
However, by consolidating all eDiscovery functions into Lit i View, these processing steps can be performed in one system up to the point of attorney review. With Lit i View, unnecessary work can be avoided and the company can spend their time concentrating on the best strategy to deal with the litigation at hand. From collection to review, UBIC technology offers a one stop service.
Through document scanning and unitization, internal company information can be prepared and managed for the possibility of litigationStoring paper documents without electronic copies creates a huge obstacle in preparing for urgent litigation. When importing scanned paper document data, Lit i View can preserve the title or author and creation date in a searchable format so documents can be quickly retrieved, greatly decreasing the risk of being sanctioned for a slow response. |
Information asset managementBecause Lit i View has a seamless connection through the ECM (Enterprise Contents Management) product group, normal document management functions necessary for auditing in compliance activities can be utilized. Databases used in past litigation cases can also be accessed, allowing referencing information for similar cases possible. |
Optimized evidence disclosure for international litigationA key point in electronic evidence disclosure is the ability to verify that none of the data has been altered from the beginning point of collection through to final production. For this reason, at the time of collection a digital fingerprint or hash value of all data is calculated and recorded. Then background information contained in the digital data (metadata) is extracted for searching and reference. E-mail and attachments are linked for logical review and a log file is created that allows you to validate and review the work performed by each person. Lit i View provides these built-in core technologies to decrease the cost of litigation to your business. |
