Q&A: Conor Gavin On How Chat and Apps Are Making E-Discovery More Complex
Conor Gavin, Senior Director, FTI Consulting, explains how an evolution in both remote working and the apps that people use in their professional lives is creating a whole new set of e-discovery challenges.
Case Study
When a client in the food services industry suspected that a newly acquired subsidiary was engaging in misleading and dishonest business practices, it sought to conduct an extensive internal investigation and lookback into the subsidiary’s activities. Using its Find Facts Fast analytic research methodology, FTI Technology was able to validate the client’s suspicions and provide the insight needed to take remedial action.
Case Study
A transportation company was conducting an internal investigation regarding allegations of improper conduct by specific employees. The allegations included reports that misconduct had occurred in a foreign country and involved corruption and illegal payments through an intermediary for that country’s government. The client engaged FTI Technology to answer key questions quickly.

The 2023 General Counsel Report
Risk is now at the center of every conversation in the modern legal department. Over four consecutive years of study in the annual General Counsel Report, in-house counsel have expressed how they’ve been required to evolve and reinvent their roles. Once seen only as risk mitigators, they have become strategic business partners and have taken on an array of new responsibilities across a widening risk landscape.
Case Study
As part of a global bank’s enterprisewide transformation initiative, its legal department planned an ambitious programme to simultaneously reduce data privacy and security risks, enhance its responsivity to legal and regulatory bodies, in addition to streamlining its operations through modernisation and the use of advanced technologies. To achieve these objectives, the organisation selected FTI Technology to deliver a unifying global platform and on-the-ground support in key geographies, along with business transformation experience to drive the initiative and deliver meaningful results.

The Modern Data Paradox: Power and Problems in Discovery and Investigations
E-discovery has always been a challenging field. Again and again, old problems are made new as the breadth and complexity of information sources change. Paper documents gave way to email, which has now been surpassed by a rising volume of chat and short-form messages from collaboration applications, mobile devices and social media. Today’s data landscape is rife with technical complexities that interfere with traditional e-discovery workflows — but it’s also rich with context and details that can inform strategy, decision making and more.

Recent Developments in the U.K. Courts Underscore the Perils of DIY E-Discovery
Two recent developments in the U.K. courts have brought the issue of self-serve e-discovery back into the spotlight. In late July, the England and Wales High Court issued a more than £500,000 penalty to a defendant for failing to fully produce relevant documents and fulfil e-discovery obligations in a patent litigation. Also in July, the Business and Property Courts approved the Disclosure Working Pilot, which as part of the permanent disclosure regime will strengthen requirements for “parties [to] engage at a much earlier stage in discussion and agreement as to how best to tackle the problem of ‘big data’.” Both decisions illustrate the importance of establishing and following defensible e-discovery best practices, particularly in today’s era when emerging data sources are complicating discovery workflows and an increasing number of platforms are being touted as providing easy, DIY e-discovery features.
Case Study
A technology company that develops artificial intelligence and autonomous transportation solutions engaged FTI Technology to lead e-discovery and document review in a dispute relating to departing employee theft of intellectual property. In addition to their e-discovery needs, legal counsel and stakeholders from the organization’s compliance team needed experts who could investigate and uncover specific data that contained IP across multiple data sources within the client’s environment and the opposing party’s environment. FTI Technology’s team of emerging data sources experts applied the firm’s proprietary Connect platform to drive quick access and insights into technical files and other sources of IP stored in Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.

The AI and Investigations Paradigm: Faster, More Precise, Defensible
The average e-discovery matter today involves more than 6.5 million pages of documents. In complex, multi-national matters and high-stakes internal investigations, data volumes are often much higher. Outdated manual processes and reluctance to leverage advanced tools to find key information from within large, diverse data sets are resulting in excessive time, cost and complexity in bringing matters to a swift and defensible conclusion.

Linked Content Presents Challenges in E-Discovery
Linked content—dynamic documents shared as links rather than attachments—are emerging among the latest areas of debate in how emerging data sources impact e-discovery. Not only are courts and discovery experts beginning to discuss whether hyperlinked content should be treated the same as attachments in production, but practitioners are also increasingly encountering the legal and technical challenges of collecting, analyzing and reviewing linked content in real world cases.

E-Discovery Predictions Revisited
So far, 2020 has been…. an “experience." The challenges our industry had braced for, the opportunities we planned to seize, have been suddenly upended in ways we never would have anticipated. At the end of last year, our team shared a few predictions for what was to come in 2020. They weren’t wrong, but the landscape in which they are coming to fruition has changed significantly from what we envisioned. Now, looking at the wake COVID-19 has left behind to date, it’s a good time to revisit those predictions and revise them to match the way the world, the legal industry and e-discovery have changed this year.
