ESI Specialists Inc. provides expert forensic data collection, data indexing and culling, electronic data processing, web-hosting, and and expert electronic discovery litigation support consulting.

As the electronic deluge increases, there are several ways of decreasing both time and costs related to any eDiscovery process. Increasing data volumes demand that early case analysis is vital to reduce the amount of data subject to expensive review and analysis. As well, your access to your data must be 24/7 – underscoring the need for online web hosting.

Just as the increased legal burden introduced by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure in the US has driven organizations there to improve their legal risk management practices to contain costs related to e-discovery, the same is now happening in Ontario with the amendments to the Rules of Civil Procedure requiring an eDiscovery plan effective as of January 1, 2010.

ESI Specialists Inc. consults across and performs the entire spectrum of eDiscovery – implementing defensible preservation and collection procedures, applying powerful pre-processing culling tools to eliminate irrelevant data, processing the relevant electronic data, and then hosting the data online for easy and accessible review from anywhere, or delivering it to you for loading into your own in-house litigation support software.
