Understanding the Impact of Early Case Assessment
All fields are required
Much has been written about the early case assessment (ECA) methodology, which has emerged as a critical way to quickly understand case facts, assess risk, and lower both review and data processing costs. But, ECA as an initial step of the case management process hasn’t always been on the scene to help control risk and litigation costs. Over time, the ECA value proposition has become clearer, but also more diverse. Most agree that an ECA approach is critical to solving three key needs at the outset of litigation:
- Estimating the scope (i.e., duration and cost) of the e-discovery effort
- Assessing case facts to evaluate risk and settlement value
- Preparing for meet & confer conferences
