Document Retention Strategy


To be ahead of the anxiety that litigation hold has on a corporate culture, IT and governance executives must meet before it happens. Many times this does not happen. Waiting till the courts inform you, is too late. Late, because money, time and scramble efforts does not help you.

WHAT IS NOT NEEDED, is complex. But by formulating a plan to save specific data, by training IT personnel in what is needed is most important. Nevertheless, testing via quality assurance with counsel, litigators and IT personnel is healthy.

Now there are several excellent companies that do this service to help you pre-plan.

I ask you that have experience here. What did you do?
