This conference will include:

Effective, well-managed electronic discovery is essential in nearly all litigation, and especially so in bankruptcy cases. There, massive quantities of relevant electronic data and paper records coupled with crushing and omnipresent deadlines can trigger unexpected release of privileged information and embarrassing, expensive delays and missteps.

Moreover, the ground rules for e-discovery are changing. On December 1, amendments to the U.S. Federal Rules of Civil Procedure will alter the way you must retain and delete data. Among other requirements, the new rules compel both parties to discuss as early as possible the location of important data and develop a data retrieval plan. Parties also must produce data in a reasonably usable format.

How can you and your clients cope with this quagmire? Order this Audio CD Recording (recorded October 2006) and let Steven C. Bennett one of the nations most recognized authorities on electronic discovery and records management help you fine-tune your management of paper and electronic records.

In just 90 minutes, you and an unlimited number of your staff will examine
