With Ennovative you have access to the latest computer and cell phone forensic collection technology with expert forensic testimony option available. Once you have an idea or you are notified of a potential litigation, evidence preservation is the first step to prevent data destruction due to retention policies and potential spoliations. This needs to be done in a forensically sound and defensible/repeatable manner and is invaluable for any legal team to prevent malpractice litigation exposure. We combine the most technically advanced forensic tools with our knowledge of the legal process. This allows our clients to develop the most efficient and cost-effective case management strategy. In addition, we provide remote collection or we can send a certified forensic examiner to the source location for all of your forensic needs.

As most cases today involve electronic data files, you need a way to review them quickly and accurately. A single gigabyte (GB) of data can generate over 75,000 printed pages or TIFF images, resulting in review times of weeks and months – not to mention the increased budget due to data size. An additional issue is the file format in which documents are reviewed. Though some cases are well-suited for a native file review (reducing the number of documents that need to be processed and data size hosted) some are better handled by converting all the data to a standard format, such as tiff or pdf, which can be quicker for immediate redactions and no further review and conversion will be needed. Other possibilities include a hybrid solution where everything is reviewed in tiff, except for spreadsheets and presentations that are better reviewed in their native formats due to issues created such a high page count, increase in data size and formatting issues when converted to tiff.

We recommend performing a native document review after an Early Case Data Assessment (ECA) subjective culling is done so you can utilize extracted text combined with OCR for documents without text to reduce the amount of data being hosted.

Ennovative offers several options so you can process, search & locate relevant documents using cost effective defensible strategies. Since more than half the costs of a typical eDiscovery project is in document processing and review, to truly control in eDiscovery costs we try to save time and money in that area. Initially, the best plan is to put together a streamlined document review workflow, including an efficient tracking method with reports to help monitor and optimize the review team. Next, data culling and minimization tools should be used to reduce the size of the review set in the early case data assessment stage. These tools include de-duplication, subjective keyword searching, file type and date filter, thesaurus, ontology, clustering, concept-related analytics tools, indexing, and more. While these tools can be complicated to understand, our experienced professionals can walk you through the issues to ensure a defensible method of culling documents for discovery responses.

Our web hosted solutions allow you to securely house your critical evidence so that it can be reviewed by just your team, or multiple parties from multiple sites. This flexibility is enhanced by avoiding costly purchases and/or upgrades to your internal IT Department that may be difficult to manage and administer; leave that to us. You use what you need for just the time you need it.
