Litigation and investigations are increasingly global in scope and can expose unprepared teams to risk
Organizations that do business outside the U.S. or with foreign entities face the necessity of dealing with data in international jurisdictions for discovery, regulatory requests and internal investigations. Unique problems come along with this necessity - including data privacy issues, security concerns, language and cultural barriers and logistical headaches.
When facing legal or regulatory challenge with international factors, having a partner who not only understands the legal landscape, but also has experience and/or teams in the local jurisdiction can be the difference between a relatively painless process and an overwhelming problem.
