A Catalyst Webinar

Learn how predictive coding and non-linear review can help companies and their counsel reduce e-discovery costs, speed up review and ensure defensibility. Among the key techniques we will cover:

  • Sampling: Use sampling to identify and review low-priority documents.
  • Email thread suppression: Review only the last email in the chain.
  • Predictive Ranking: Review the documents most likely to be relevant.

Join Catalyst Search & Analytics consultants Ron Tienzo and Jim Eidelman as they
survey the use of these tools and describe best practices for your cases.
