Core Competencies

Litigation & Investigations

Discovery in litigation and investigations requires dedicated outside counsel and service providers with a deep knowledge of eDiscovery law, complex data ecosystems, and technology solutions in the context of fast-paced, highly charged, high-stakes matters. Redgrave offers the unique knowledge and experience necessary to manage discovery strategy and execution across multiple matters while ensuring consistency and efficiency. As discovery counsel, Redgrave works with trial counsel across the entire litigation profile to leverage existing collections and work product, avoid duplication of efforts, and reduce risks and costs. Working in coordination with trial counsel ensures that discovery is managed effectively and in a defensible manner, allowing trial counsel to focus their efforts on overall case strategy without being mired in discovery negotiations or disputes. The Firm also works to develop innovative solutions for clients to enhance the defensible, proportional, and efficient handling of discovery issues in litigation and investigations, such as the identification of privileged information and the subsequent logging and dispute resolution process. Redgrave has a deep bench of experienced litigators and eDiscovery lawyers, combined with an extraordinary breadth of technical and business process talent to help companies navigate the risky and high cost of discovery.

Information Governance

Redgrave understands that information is the lifeblood of a business, and the legal and technical issues relating to that information—about customers, products, services, and operations—are inextricably combined. The Firm offers an unmatched depth of experience in all facets of information governance, including records retention and legal holds, governing policies and procedures, discovery preparedness, system lifecycle processes, and defensible data disposition. Redgrave helps clients develop and refine policies and processes governing information management, employee conduct, and technology usage. It offers advice on simplifying and harmonizing these requirements so they can be understood, deployed, and followed throughout the organization.

Data Privacy & Cybersecurity

The proliferation of data brings significant responsibilities regarding information stewardship. Today, a significant number of countries and local jurisdictions in the U.S. have enacted privacy and data protection laws and regulations that impact the creation, management, and transfer of information. While these requirements vary significantly across jurisdictions and industries, the global trend is toward stricter enforcement and the imposition of severe penalties for violations. Likewise, cybersecurity threats must be taken seriously, as vulnerabilities can expose personal information, confidential corporate information, and national security secrets to the world. Redgrave helps clients address privacy and data security challenges. The Firm also works with clients to develop protocols for privacy breach responses and provides counsel when situations impact data security and privacy issues.

Corporate Transactions

In mergers, acquisitions, restructuring, and divestitures, business systems and information technology functions are often combined or consolidated. Redgrave provides practical guidance during this critical time to ensure that efficiencies are leveraged while also taking the necessary steps to retain records and information that must be kept for legal or regulatory purposes. The Firm works with clients on due diligence inquiries and addresses protocols and procedures that impact the storage or destruction of records. Redgrave also ensures policies and protocols are understood and applied consistently in the new organization. The Redgrave team can also assist with potential privacy and data security issues in corporate transactions, to clear deal roadblocks and provide remediation to further minimize risks post-transaction.

Special Services

eDiscovery and information law matters often necessitate focused services, capabilities, and counsel to address complex and contentious issues in litigation. These services include delivering expert testimony or serving as a court-appointed neutral or expert advisor, along with counseling and representing clients regarding particularly complex or high-stakes discovery disputes, privilege challenges, or confidentiality issues. Our special services capabilities leverage our team’s deep understanding of the critical issues that arise in matters where eDiscovery plays a pivotal role in the direction of litigation. We have extensive experience serving in these roles and have addressed a broad range of cutting-edge discovery-related issues in challenging matters, including issues concerning the scope of discovery, preservation, collection, production, proportionality, and claims related to privilege or confidentiality. Redgrave attorneys have served appointments as discovery neutrals to oversee the discovery process, and our professionals have experience addressing such issues in the context of a neutral discovery mediator role, as well as court-appointed technical advisors. Redgrave attorneys, directors, and advisors can also serve as consulting and testifying expert witnesses on various aspects of information law.

Redgrave Review and Analytics

Redgrave understands that selecting a review team is a strategic choice that provides tangible benefits to clients. Our Review and Analytics attorneys and advisors see the entire document review landscape in the larger context of business needs and legal matters and advise clients on conducting strategic reviews of documents and data that meet the highest statistically-validated quality standards. The Firm’s approach not only provides outside counsel guidance and supervision to the first-level and second-level review process, but we also provide targeted review services to meet the demand for high-quality, discrete, and effective reviews.

Our highly skilled and experienced teams of eDiscovery attorneys, project managers, data scientists, technologists, and dedicated attorney review eTeams allow us to scale and customize reviews of any size and scope.
