Information Governance (InfoGovernance) is the specification of decision rights and an accountability framework to encourage desirable behavior in the valuation, creation, storage, use, archiving and deletion of information. It includes the processes, roles, standards and metrics that ensure the effective and efficient use of information to enable an organization to achieve its goals. Information governance should be an element in planning an enterprise's information architecture.

eDiscovery Challenges: Challenges Faces By Corporate Counsel

Lexbe provides eDiscovery software and services for legal professionals at law firms, corporations, and government agencies.  
Corporate legal and IT departments have an increasing need for cost-efficient eDiscovery/document management software and litigation support services to handle exponentially larger discovery collections and document reviews. It is critically important for corporate counsel to maintain control over and access to sensitive case documents with an internal software solution that won’t break the bank. All too often, outside counsel is less sensitive to security and billing issues than internal litigation staff, and unexpected discovery cost overruns can create serious disagreements and permanant changes to the dynamics of a case. Sometimes, a temporary ‘neutral territory’ is also needed to conduct reviews. Existing internal solutions may not avail themselves to the kind inter-office collaboration that may be required when working with outside counsel.
The Lexbe eDiscovery Platform has been designed to minimize eDiscovery processing, review, and production costs while maintaining industry leading feature performance and functionality. With no user fees, case fees, or hidden costs, Lexbe eDiscovery Platform provides a litigation document management solution that allows corporate counsel to maintain control over discovery collections at a low and predictable monthly cost. Our web-based system can be accessed from any browser and across both PC and MAC operating systems to allow for fast, real-time collaboration between internal legal staff and outside counsel.
