Legal Hold and Legal Service Requests in a Black Hole?

Both Legal Holds and Legal Services Requests are hot topics in the legal technology community right now. Just last month LegalTechNews.com had experts discuss legal hold processes and what to look for in a solution.

Legal Holds

TechTarget.com does an excellent job outlining and clarifying legal holds, citing:

A company must preserve records when it learns of pending or imminent litigation, or when litigation is reasonably anticipated. Litigation hold prevents spoliation (destruction, alteration, or mutilation of evidence) which can have a catastrophic impact on the defense… 

…Implementing a litigation hold process can be challenging for storage administrators. All companies must establish a sound retention policy and apply that policy to their storage systems.

Onit’s Legal Hold solution helps corporate legal departments
