In-house vs. outside counsel: who decides?
Given the marked increase in economic and business risk anxiety, it's no surprise that in-house counsel are scrutinizing litigation costs and, in many cases, seizing control of much of the discovery process. This webinar will explore the changing relationships and roles of in-house and outside counsel around what often is the single largest cost in a legal proceeding – electronic discovery.
In this webinar you will learn about:
- The in-house and outside counsel eDiscovery management paradigm: its history, evolution, changing in-house counsel perspective, and outside counsel concerns
- How in-house and outside counsel can work together to gain control over eDiscovery spending
- The potential pitfalls of too much in-sourcing, and how IT, compliance, records managers and third party service providers can help or hinder
During the discussion, our panel will share their expertise on how companies, their outside counsel and third party consultants and providers can work cooperatively together to achieve cost-effective and risk-conscious results.
