Ledjit Consulting and Guidance Software have partnered to bring advanced e-discovery services to Ledjit’s clients worldwide. The alliance is said to combine Ledjit’s expertise in e-discovery—including legal and technical oversight to preserve, collect, process, review and produce electronically stored information (ESI)—with Guidance Software’s EnCase eDiscovery software solution, which enables companies to search, identify, collect, preserve and process ESI from servers, laptops and workstations across a global network from a central location.

EnCase eDiscovery performs automated search, collection and preservation of ESI residing in unstructured and semi-structured data stores— such as desktops, laptops, file servers, e-mail servers, content management systems and removable storage media—without any business disruption. Additionally, it offers optional litigation hold notification and tracking functionality. Further, its processing capabilities enable post-collection culling and de-duplication of data, as well as load file creation for the most popular attorney review platforms, allowing customers to dramatically cut processing costs, says Guidance Software.
