E-Discovery and Electronic Evidence Management for Legal Teams

Modern disputes and investigations turn on emails, chat messages, spreadsheets and system logs, yet mishandled electronic evidence is easily challenged or lost. This course teaches legal and compliance teams how to identify, preserve, collect and review electronic evidence defensibly. Delegates work through legal holds, collection from cloud and mobile sources, and review workflows suited to African organisations.
