Discovery Planning and Strategy Services

Whether in anticipation of litigation or after the filing of a complaint, ILS can help you prepare for the demands of today's contentious litigation environment. 

With our multidisciplinary team, we have proven time and time again that specific ESI discovery experience makes all the difference.  We can provide ESI Discovery practiced attorneys, litigation support specialists, IT specialists and project managers who work with you side-by-side from the inception of the matter through completion.

ILS provides in-depth start to finish planning and strategy support to help you position your matter with your client.  We can plan cost efficient ESI identification and collection strategies, support in defining and negotiating formats, relevance identification search protocols and deadlines as well as cost sharing strategies with opposing counsel.  We can also provide document review planning and implementation including defensible privilege review strategies. 

By implementing best practices at the outset of the engagement, we develop and implement a comprehensive discovery plan which provides efficiencies for handling data collection, paper and electronic documents, as well as enhanced methodologies for reviewing and producing of documents.  Most importantly, we will provide court accepted methodologies for the proper preservation of data, thereby providing a defensible process and risk avoidance for spoliation and/or adverse inference claims.
