eDJ Brief: ALTorney at Relativity Fest
In 2 short years, brothers Rachi and Shimmy Messing have changed the contract reviewer market with their ALTorney platform. This realization hit me while I was drafting an RFP for a global corporate managed service contract.

Relativity Fest 2024 – eDJ Fast Takes
The 15th Relativity Fest was one of the most highly attended Relativity Fests to date with about 2,000 attendees. Sessions were packed with customers.

eDJ Geek Guide: Teams as an eDiscovery Source
With more than 1 million organizations and 320 million monthly users, Teams chats, sites and channels are key eDiscovery targets for legal holds and collections. Despite extensive public documentation, blogs and articles it can be challenging to understand the different types of Teams channels, what they can store and where the ESI is routed. The new Guide Guide on Teams as a source is meant [...]
