Introduction

Discovery is a core skill for any litigator. It can raise difficult legal and technical issues and can be often be the most expensive component of civil litigation. Document review – the process of lawyers eyeballing documents for relevance and privilege – is usually the most expensive aspect of discovery. Effective planning and management of the process is an essential part of providing excellent, cost-effective litigation services to clients.

The aim of this seminar paper is to provide you with practical tools to ensure that you get the discovery process right.
