Despite broad familiarity with the litigation-related duty to
preserve relevant evidence, including electronically stored
information (ESI), many corporate litigants have been subjected to
severe sanctions due to an increasing judicial intolerance for the
failure to preserve ESI.
In today's legal climate, even an inadvertent delay in
preserving ESI, which extends to both electronic and hard copy
materials, remains too important to ignore.
Wilson Elser's 2016 white
paper guides litigants through their
responsibilities to preserve evidence and provides valuable
information on implementing a defensible legal hold process. We
trust that this document will serve you well in this regard.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general
guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought
about your specific circumstances.
