E-Discovery expert, Craig Ball recently published an article in Law Technology News supporting almost exclusive use of native document format for both review and production. A commonly held belief we frequently hear at Inventus is that TIFF or page-level production format necessary for future use in depositions and therefore entire productions must be delivered in TIFF format. A cost-efficient alternative, however, is to TIFF only files designated for use in depositions and to do so subsequent to production. Because the number of documents actually used for depositions is miniscule when compared to the entirety of a production, this alternative is both time- and money-saving for our clients.
For even more compelling reasons to consider native-only productions, Mr. Ball’s article can be found here.

File metadata–often referred to as data about data–may function as evidence itself or may be used for authentication of other evidence. In addition, many of the fields populated in any given review platform are in fact metadata: Date Sent, Recipients, Author, Title, etc.

Craig Ball, an industry leader and contributor to the blog, EDD Update, recently published a post on Inventus V.P. Ed Fiducia’s presentation of Concept Search. Ball wrote that, “Ed tackled the concept of concept search, particularly document clustering and near duplicate technology.” Ball summarizes that, “Enabling a single reviewer to rapidly muster similar documents not only reduces the risk of inconsistent characterization and redaction, but also reveals similarities that might have been overlooked.”
