Introduction to Data Analytics: Practical Applications
“Data analytics” has become a ubiquitous term in today’s vernacular—in the news, in marketing materials, and everyday conversation. The term can be used to describe a broad array of ways that organizations make data-driven decisions to improve performance: health care providers improve patient care, couriers get goods to our homes more efficiently, and email providers screen spam from our mailboxes. The applications are endless.
Data analytics is also changing the practice of law. The discovery process – one of the largest expenses in litigation – involves examining large data volumes and complex databases for key facts, which can be like finding a needle in a haystack. Add increasing pressure from clients to contain legal spend, plus mitigating the risk of missing important information or inadvertently producing privileged or confidential documents, and it is more important than ever to be able to efficiently organize and review data, automate processes whenever possible, surface key facts quickly, and reuse work product.
Data analytics allows for all of that and more. It can also influence other areas of law, including cybersecurity and incident response, internal investigations, due diligence, and even transactional work such as contract management.

Managing E-Discovery When Resources are Limited
Presented by the ISBA Federal Civil Practice Section and Co-Sponsored by the 7th Circuit E-Discovery Pilot Program. Litigation occasionally involves parties of very disparate sizes, which can result in a difference between the amount of electronically-stored data in each of their possessions – and an even great difference in their resources to obtain e-discovery. The costs and logistics of e-discovery can present special problems in cases where the parties are operating on a more limited budget. View this webinar for tips and advice for these types of situations, as well as a discussion on how to find, preserve, and produce electronically-stored data.
