e-discovery can be a very complex and expensive
process. Increasingly, business information exists only in electronic form, and a request for discovery can threaten the operations
of an entire corporation, consume weeks or months, and incur enormous fees for processing activities and attorney review.
In addition, corporations lack the tools to quickly assess what electronic information is available and its potential confidential
nature.

HTEC works with firms and corporations
to manage the e-discovery process, develop procedures, and deploy automated tools. We help apply information management best
practices to electronic information collections that focus on proactive identification and documentation of information repositories
and supporting systems within the corporate environment. Additionally, we provide assistance in the development of standardized
litigation processes for document collection from both paper and electronic sources. Our goal is to minimize the risks, costs,
and duplicative efforts associated with discovery efforts through providing standardized, documented, and defensible information
management procedures. We also assist in selecting and deploying systems, assessing service providers, and managing discovery
activities.
