Extract from Jeffrey Wolff’s article “3 Reasons Why Cloud-Based eDiscovery Could Be the Move Your Law Firm Needs in 2021”
The practice of law can feel like a chess game. What do you expect your opponent to do? What do they expect you to do? What move could you make that would protect your argument—while undercutting theirs in a way that they didn’t see coming? Managing a law firm can feel like a strategic game too. Where should you invest? Where should you pull back? What move should you make next to stand out from the crowd of options without sacrificing excellent client service?
If your law firm still manages eDiscovery using an on-premises application that’s hosted on a few servers in a locked closet, we’ve got a move for you: the move to cloud-based eDiscovery.
In this blog post, we’ll take a look at what cloud-based eDiscovery is and why law firms often resist the move to the cloud. We’ll then lay out three reasons why moving your law firm’s eDiscovery to the cloud could be the big move your firm needs to make for 2021 and beyond.
