With the increase of corporate globalization, potentially relevant evidence can reside in many countries. From foreign language and computer language barriers, to privacy laws and safe harbor issues, counsel encounter numerous challenges when litigation is anticipated. It’s critical to understand the rules and regulations that govern the access to and the use of foreign data. This session will examine ethical issues and practical solutions for cross-border e-discovery, including e-discovery vs. e-disclosure — managing conflicts between US and foreign laws and procedures, cross-border, multi-language e-discovery requirements — managing data from collection and translation through review and production, and cost containment — managing the costs of e-discovery while data volumes and legal complexities explode.
