Not Just Another Complex E-Discovery Blog!

By combining technical litigation support skills and paralegal skills, I have become one of a rare breed of hybrid paralegals. A "technical-litigation-support-paralegal (TLSP)"! Through more than 10 years experience in which I avidly learned how to setup Concordance, Summation and Microsoft Access databases, I've developed an intutive knowledge of what an attorney needs from legal software.
A deep knowledge of legal software can be used to make litigation, (particularly discovery & document management) more efficient and more effective. It also makes the litigation process from court-filing to the court-room even more exciting because it "allows the paralegal to think and work creatively by mixing legal and technical skills" (The Evolving Paralegal Role by Milton Hooper, Legal Assistant Today, 2007, http://goo.gl/USt0).
The focus of this blog is the ABC's of E-Discovery for paralegals and legal assistants. I will provide a step by step guide to understanding the technical litigation support role in e-Discovery and Document Management.
The following questions will be answered and discussed, answered and discussed again, and again as the technology and the legal rules governing e-Discovery continuously changes:
  • What is e-discovery?
  • What is the role of the paralegal in e-discovery?
  • What are the tools of e-discovery?
  • What is electronic document management?
You, the commenter, will play a major role in answering these questions as you contribute to the discussion. What do you know? Please share your knowledge!
