Extract from Barry Schwartz, Esq.'s article "Paralegals in eDiscovery: Why They Should Be Involved From the Start" published in the National Paralegal Reporter
Paralegals help legal teams to maintain files, assist with depositions, coordinate schedules and help prepare cases. But as technology has grown, more paralegals are taking on roles in eDiscovery, and it's important to include them in the process from the start.
BIA's Barry Schwartz, Esq. explains 4 reasons why.
I wanted a certification that separates me from my peers. Upon discovering CEDS, I was convinced this was exactly the type of distinction I had been seeking. Since achieving CEDS certification, I’ve noticed immediate recognition from my organization, colleagues, and current and prospective clients.They acknowledge they are more comfortable working with a person who has taken time to seek such certification. CEDS has certainly been worth the small investment and should continue to beget returns for years and years to come.

I get bombarded with all kinds of e-discovery stuff – news, blogs and whatnot. Let me tell you, you guys send the absolute best! I send it to all my partners and sales folks. I said, who are these guys? I have to get to know them better!

As a trial lawyer, day-to-day information processing is daunting for my client service. I’ve come to rely on ACEDS to keep me on the ‘edge’ of the curve on e-discovery. It’s a source I ‘ping’ ASAP.
