Course Description

When you think of electronic evidence, you might think of e-mails, word processing documents or even spreadsheet files. But did you know that electronic evidence may also be recoverable from voice-mail, instant messaging sessions, and PDAs? Were you aware that data can be recovered even after it has been deleted from PCs and servers? In this program, aimed at lawyers with minimal technical expertise, a panel of forensic technology experts and attorneys experienced with discovery of electronic evidence explain the basics of this increasingly crucial aspect of litigation and provide important practice pointers. Learn where to find electronic evidence, how to craft an appropriate document request, and how to deal with requests and subpoenas you may receive. The program also covers best practices for reviewing electronic evidence and production options.
