Deloitte Financial Advisory Services LLP

Conflict in business is inevitable. A certain amount of business litigation is to be expected.

There are emerging problems, issues and trends in pretrial discovery, particularly as affected by the explosion of electronic files. Also, there are some specific trends currently employed to manage the document review process. Acknowledging these trends could help you avoid being sucked into litigation’s “black hole.”
