Wondering if anyone in this industry doing some moonlighting remotely? Would you be kind enough to share some knowledge on legalities, tips, and experiences. TIA submitted by /u/tysonchen3o3 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi all, I’m an attorney with lots of e-discovery experience from years working in BigLaw. For various reasons, I’m looking to work full time-ish doing remote doc review for a while. I have responded to a few postings on The Posse List from staffing services, been interviewed and filled out paperwork, and now I’m just anxiously waiting to be staffed on a project, and I’m not sure what happens next. All of the advice I have read here and elsewhere says to sign up with multiple staffing services to get the most opportunities, which makes sense, but I’m confused about the logistics of it all. Onc ..read more

Hi all, I have a question from a client regarding using Everlaw's AI tool. They want to draft a position statement using the AI assistant. I'm not very well-versed in that and I'm not sure where to look for answers on how that would work. Has anyone ever used their AI assistant for drafting? If so, what can you tell me about it? EDIT: I played around with their Story tool and spoke to someone from their support. It CAN draft a position statement in Custom mode, so long as you give it enough information and write out your prompts in a way that's clearly providing what you want the tool to do ..read more

In an eDiscovery search-term hit report, why is there a difference between the number of items for the Primary search term, and the number of items for the Keyword search term? Is it because of the unindexed items? submitted by /u/Old_Initiative_4388 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I have the search term “i.b.i.” as well as “ibi” . While everything works with ibi the other one makes trouble, meaning: A lot of (unique) hits but seemingly false positive. If I run a saved search looking for unique i.b.i. hits I can’t find those hits and they aren’t highlighted by the PHS. This is probably due to “i” being a noise word as well “.” handled as a space. How should I resp. how do you handle this? submitted by /u/Fickle_Charity3655 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Anyone know how this script works? I have images and text loaded into ReadySuite, set the script options, and hit run. Script completes with no errors or warning, but nothing is populated in the field I selected in the script setup. Help? submitted by /u/nova_mike_nola [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hopefully someone can point me in some direction here. I manage I.T. in the US for a handful of smaller law firms. I've been in this role or in I.T. with a large firm for about twenty years. I've helped with several cases hosted on various cloud based platforms and built and built some cases on premis on some now defunct platforms. I'm trying to gain a better understanding of eDiscovery to work better with my end users (attorneys and paralegals) and actually come away with some certification. Since the hosted platforms we use are a bit across the board, I was leaning toward the CEDS through A ..read more

Posting from a throwaway due to being somewhat identifiable on my main. Does anyone have any experience/feedback working as an ediscovery PM at H&K? If not direct personal experience in the role, it would also be great to hear from those that have worked with these folks from another role internally or even from another shop/client. I ask because I was contacted by a recruiter and the initial conversation seemed very promising, especially given I wasn’t even looking for a change before they reached out. In fact I’m pretty happy with my current spot, although I had some new grievances aris ..read more

When looking for an eDiscovery or forensics vendor, do you ever use google to find them, or if one comes to you do you google them to learn more about them if you’ve never heard of them? submitted by /u/Onsyde [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

My team received around 10k message-ids from another tool that we've been asked to export from M365. We thought this was going to be an easier ask but turns out not so much. We have access to standard ediscovery and content search, but can upgrade if needed. Does anyone know how search and export using just message id?
