MetaLINCS for High Technology

Protecting Intellectual Property

From competitors to patent trolls, high technology companies are finding their intellectual property under attack in lawsuits. Defending intellectual property often requires reviewing many years’ worth of electronic documents. And in an industry with so many mergers and acquisitions, high technology companies often find themselves under investigation by regulatory agencies. These investigations necessitate undertaking extensive electronic document discovery, especially email discovery, exercises.

The E-discovery Challenge

Few industries are as competitive as high technology. Companies in the sector would prefer to devote resources to innovation—not to litigation and regulatory actions. Yet many choose to have outside e-discovery litigation support service providers conduct manual processing and review of electronic documents. The cost is often staggering. Why are these tech-savvy companies forced to rely on time-consuming and expensive manual processes for e-discovery? They do not have the legal technology needed to streamline, accelerate, and lower the cost of electronic document discovery.
