Social Media & eDiscovery:  Untangling the Tweets for the Trials      CLE Eligible

The cross roads of social media and eDiscovery are the new lawyer nightmare. With eDiscovery expenses on the rise and data volumes increasing rapidly, eDiscovery can be challenging enough. However, with social media sites including Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and LinkedIn having 100s of millions of users worldwide, this adds a new dimension to the challenge of managing ESI. Lawyers now must grapple with questions which include:

  • Are social media sites discoverable?
  • Should your organization be saving every “tweet” and web-page?
  • What is reasonable and what could you be held accountable for?
  • Can technology help manage these potential data sources?

Attend this session to learn how social media and eDiscovery are intertwined, the challenges of managing these data sources, and the means and methods to manage this new challenge.
