Originally published in the June 29, 2012 issue of LitigationWorld: Yelling is counterproductive. A subtle approach works better at persuading people. For this issue of LitigationWorld, lawyer and ediscovery expert Joshua Gilliland has penned a thoughtful open letter about the current state of ediscovery ethics — the gap between what the ethical and civil procedural rules require and what's actually happening in most cases. However, rather than berate litigators, Josh demonstrates some relatively simple steps you can take starting today to ensure compliance. As an added bonus, you'll gain a strategic advantage in your cases. We suggest you take Josh's advice. Also, don't miss the LitigationWorld Pick of the Week for tips on how to tell an electrifying story in court (Mad Men, not C-Span).
