Discovery Problems and Their Solutions

"Today, lawyers and clients devote a great deal of time, effort and expense to discovery. More often than not, discovery, and not trial, is the central battleground of a case. The need for analytical and strategic guidance on problems related to discovery is essential, as much of it is handled by relatively inexperienced lawyers, and in the case of document production, by legal assistants. The Third Edition updates the case law of discovery since publication of the Second Edition in 2009; addresses substantive amendments to Rule 26 that were enacted 2010; includes a new chapter on social media; and reviews developing case law on spoliation and sanctions under Rule 37, the growing body of case law on discovery of electronically stored information (ESI), and other evolving discovery issues"--Page 4 of cover.
