Dawn Garza to Speak at LegalWeek on March 26

This event has already occurred.
Dawn Garza will speak on the challenges of ephemeral messaging apps in ediscovery at LegalWeek on March 26.
 
Never have so many messaging devices, apps, and services been available to employees, and their use is on the rise. More and more work communications are taking place in collaboration tools and messaging apps, including ephemeral messaging apps. These myriad messaging options can create significant identification, preservation, and collection challenges, including special collection methods for documenting ephemeral messages, special unitization challenges for message threads, and special investigation efforts to identify off-channel communications. In this program, experienced practitioners will discuss the importance of understanding this range of messaging channels, the unique discovery and compliance challenges they create, and the optimal processes for handling them. Discussion topics will include:
  • The current range of messaging channels available to employees, including ephemeral messaging apps
  • The preservation and collection challenges posed by collaboration tools and ephemeral messages
  • The “soft skills” involved in navigating collections from personal devices and accounts
