Happy eDiscovery Day! It’s a great day to celebrate the industry we love and learn more about what’s happening in the world of ediscovery. Brett Burney, our eLaw Evangelist and the Vice President of eDiscovery Consulting at Nextpoint Law Group, joined the festivities today as a webinar panelist with our friends Doug Austin, Kelly Twigger, and Tom O'Connor. They spoke about “modern attachments,” or hyperlinked files, one of the hot ediscovery topics this year. These ediscovery experts built on the discussion they had in our August webinar with EDRM - Electronic Discovery Reference Model on modern attachments (which broke their record for emoji reactions!).
