Designing and managing discovery processes

Discovery remains “where cases are won and lost”. Given the physical and technological changes in how discovery is undertaken, ensuring that your team’s processes – particularly in complex litigation – are designed and managed in suitable ways is essential.

In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with LK special counsel Allie Umoff about her background in litigation, how and why discovery remains crucial for optimal client service delivery, the ways in which discovery processes have shifted and even become more enjoyable, and how good discovery processes are more important than ever.

Umoff also delves into how litigation teams can and should think about redesigning their discovery processes, the practical steps to be taken to create a roadmap for success regardless of the client matter, reflections on a case study of good undertaking of discovery processes, the importance of reviewing a team’s success or otherwise in managing discovery, and ultimately what best practice looks like in redesigning and managing complex projects.
