Casepoint continues to expand its unified platform for eDiscovery, investigations, FOIA and compliance platform with large government agencies, Fortune 500 customers, and new channel partners.

eDiscovery Impact of Advanced Indexing in M365

I have listened to many providers and even some expert peers proclaim that M365 content search does not comply with FRCP 26(G) requirements. In my perspective they are right AND wrong. M365’s default business index (ambient) prioritizes productivity over completeness.  Microsoft clearly documents the wide range of ‘partially indexed items’ resulting from item size, complexity and parsing time limits. Relying on the ambient index [...]

eDJ Brief: Entegrata at Legalweek 2026

The startup Entegrata applies a new contextual normalization approach to a unified firm data lakehouse. What does that mean and why should you care? Global law and consulting firms utilize a bewildering array of communication, collaboration, billing, project management and document management systems that rarely talk to each other or your financial analysis systems. Managing partners struggle to understand productivity, client engagement and profit without a [...]

eDJ Brief: Relativity at Legalweek 2026

Relativity provided one of my few truly private briefing opportunities at the new Legalweek.

eDJ Brief: Exterro at Legalweek

Exterro’s pre-Legalweek announcements including ISO 27001 certification and their eDiscovery Day survey results underscore a deliberate focus on trust, compliance, and real-world data risk challenges rather than chasing headline-driven innovation. The Exterro team continues to expand their flexible cloud architecture to support new usage cases from a unified platform powered by AI. That aligns with the 60% response rate that AI, automation and data governance will define [...]

eDJ Brief: Level Legal at Legalweek

I was pleased to see the Level Legal booth in the Legalweek exhibit hall. My first briefing at Legalweek 2023 I bluntly asked, “Why brief me when you are all about quality services instead of technology innovation?” If you have not noticed, I rarely cover pure service players. Daniel Bonner answered with enthusiasm and made an impression worth following up. Then my friend David [...]
