Unfortunately due to varying requirements among State by State CLE approval authorities for prerecorded material, we are not able to offer CLE credit for recorded webinars. We can only offer CLE credit for the live sessions.

The complexities of eDiscovery may require parties to secure expert testimony to offer evidentiary support of eDiscovery-related motions or to serve as a 30(b)(6) witness. In addition, an eDiscovery expert can serve as a court-appointed neutral to assist in addressing and resolving specific technical and process issues related to eDiscovery conflicts. This program provides an overview of the issues and examines key considerations surrounding the use of experts and neutrals in addressing and resolving eDiscovery issues.

Topics covered include:

  • Scenarios that merit the use of an eDiscovery expert or neutral
  • Rules regarding use of experts
  • The risks of not obtaining expert testimony in support of motion practice
  • How courts resolve the battle of the experts
  • Important factors in the appointment of eDiscovery neutrals

Speakers:

  • Hon. Michael Robinson, Special Superior Court Judge for Complex Business Cases
  • Ronni D. Solomon, Partner, Trial and Global Disputes, King & Spalding
  • Kevin F. Brady, Senior Counsel, E-Discovery & RIM, Volkswagen Group of America, Inc.
  • Eric P Mandel, Consultant, Innovative Driven
