Extract from George Socha’s article “eDiscovery Leaders Live: Erin Toomey of Epiq”
Erin Toomey, Senior Director, Antitrust and Competition Practice Group at Epiq, joins George Socha, Senior Vice President of Brand Awareness at Reveal, for ACEDS #eDiscoveryLeadersLive.
Erin is a Senior Director at Epiq leading the Antitrust and Competition Practice Group and is based in the Washington, DC office. With over 15 years of experience, her primary focus is review and production management in litigation, government, and internal investigation cases. In addition to these services, Erin has extensive experience in the complete EDRM life cycle and has provided support and strategy development for collections, processing, content and privilege review and productions. Erin has managed projects including international cases with complex data privacy concerns spanning multiple jurisdictions as well as civil litigations of varying sizes. She is a graduate of Wake Forest University where she focused on Management Information Systems and Project Management studies.
Erin started our discussion by sharing the path she took to eDiscovery and ultimately to Epiq. She talked about her practice group and its growth. Erin then spent the bulk of our time together focusing on the various ways her team is taking advantage of AI and analytics including TAR in their antitrust and competition practice – for second requests, to facilitate privilege review – and on strategies for working effectively with regulators.
