We introduce you to the core learning objectives and you’ll learn why eDiscovery is important to employers and why law firms leave no expense spared to find the best available
paralegal talent.
Our colourful case study brings to life a modern legal dispute and takes you through the judicial processes involved in seeking discovery. The case study is a central focus point throughout the module.
We transform the standard approach to Discovery learning through an in-depth breakdown of the practical steps involved. This is essential information for any paralegal tasked with filing documents with the relevant Court or corresponding with your opponent during litigation.
We answer the question “What does the Paralegal actually do” when it comes to eDiscovery and what to expect when applying for e-Discovery jobs.
Relevance across all jurisdictions underpins both the scope and form of eDiscovery. We remove all the complications through reference to our case study and provide you with a clear set of criteria to assist your understanding.
Parties in dispute will have competing interests when complying with the discovery process, and each will look to minimise their vulnerability to any abuse of process by the other side.
Now you are ready to learn the Paralegal workflow. Come to know the systemised approach for completing tasks as an eDiscovery paralegal. Understanding this important information will give you the confidence to impress any interviewer or future employer.
We preview our Second Module in the eDiscovery Essential series. We focus on Technical Skills this time with an introduction to Relativity.
To supplement youe practical learning, we've pulled toghether all the relevant state and territory resources so that you can see how eDiscovery plays out in your local jurisdiction.
