An article by Dera J. Nevin on the Canadian Lawyer website, on the Tech Support section.

This article provides tips and guidelines for choosing an eDiscovery tool, and if not performing the work in-house, how to chose a services provider.

The article provides several questions to ask:

Ask what affects the review tool’s stability. Also make sure the tool is secure and will not permit documents to be altered or downloaded from the tool.

Does the tool maintain native file formats?

Does the tool allow for easy coding or annotation of documents?

Does the tool maintain an appropriate chain of evidence?

Should you in-source or outsource?

If I outsource, how do I choose a vendor?

Read the article for the author's tips on how to answer these questions.
