Most recently, IST Discover-E Project Managers worked with McGuireWoods LLP, a US law firm, to support the eDiscovery needs of Carters, Inc. which included on-site collection of data from several Apple MacBook laptops, Windows laptops and network locations.
As data preservation was very important in this matter, IST Discover-E’s forensically sound data collection methods were key to the process of retaining all metadata in a defensible manner. Each platform presented its own unique challenges as each file system handles metadata in its own way. It was imperative that dates and times remained unchanged during the collection process. Once collected, the files were loaded onto the IST Discover-E hosted application. Relativity, for review by McGuire Woods attorneys.
Not only was forensically sound data collection a primary concern but data analysis, and searching provided by IST’s project managers, saved the review team many hours and Carter’s many thousands of dollars.
IST Discover–E understands that every law practice is unique, which is why we offer and develop a wide range of eDiscovery solutions fulfilling the needs of corporate and legal clients. The best part about partnering with IST is our custom-centric approach to all services provided. From start to finish, we are with you every step of the way and are happy to assist with further recommendations, advice/assistance, troubleshooting or expansion of process to additional matters.
