This program will keep you from being court sanctioned. It will discuss how and when to implement legal holds, what to include in a legal hold to prevent court sanctions, how to make responding to legal hold requests more efficient, and when to hand the ball off to outside counsel. Ever wonder about the structure of a legal hold (what to include, what to leave out), how to initially respond to a legal hold request from an external party in order to retain the ability to negotiate scope and costs in the future, or how to seamlessly hand the claim off to outside litigation counsel? You will find out all of this and also receive examples of good and bad legal holds.
