Defuse Firm Fear and Disarm EDD Vendors

There's no question about it, electronic data discovery is generating huge revenues for vendors and gigantic headaches for corporations and their lawyers. There's outright fear and confusion as everybody struggles to understand -- and corral -- this critical litigation technology.

When Law Technology News first introduced our EDD Showcases in 2002, we scoured the Web and came up with 55 vendors. Just five years later, there are more than 600 providers. And the money is breathtaking: The 2007 Socha/Gelbmann EDD Survey, released in August, pronounced that EDD is now a $2 billion business -- that will double by 2009.
