Failure to establish consistent and defensible legal hold policies and procedures can create significant legal risk and unnecessary uncertainty for a critical process.
When you need to immediately put information or a custodian on a freeze to prevent deletion of critical data, Innovative Driven can help you manage the process with automation and ease. Furthermore, we will work with you to create and implement policies that allow you to rid of data with confidence.
Identify all potentially relevant information, including electronic and physical documents, emails, and other data that may be relevant to the case.
Notify custodians about the legal hold and instructed not to destroy any of the potentially relevant information.
The information should be preserved in its original form, both physically and electronically, to ensure its integrity and authenticity.
Monitor compliance with the legal hold, including following up with custodians to ensure that they are preserving the relevant information.
Identify the categories of documents that the organization should retain based on legal and business requirements.
Outline how long each category of document should be retained and specify the method of destruction once the retention period has expired.
The document retention policy should be implemented across the organization and all employees should be notified about it and trained on how to comply with it.
The organization should monitor compliance with the document retention policy, including following up with employees to ensure that they are retaining documents according to the policy.
