Seyfarth Launches eDiscovery and Information Governance Blog Carpe Datum Law

Seyfarth Shaw LLP’s eDiscovery and Information Governance (eDIG) practice group is pleased to announce the launch of Carpe Datum Law, a one-stop resource for legal professionals seeking to stay abreast of fast-paced developments in eDiscovery and information governance, including data privacy, data security, and records and information management. 

Seyfarth’s eDIG practice group created Carpe Datum Law to serve as a timely and unique resource for executives and corporate in-house counsel to stay up-to-speed on global developments, trends and game-changing decisions in these data-driven areas of the law. Readers will benefit from the blog’s comprehensive perspective and guidance on how the law is adapting to the interrelated challenges of keeping corporate data secure and in compliance with global data privacy laws, adapting to new best practices in information governance, and maintaining defensible and efficient approaches to data preservation, collection, review, and production when eDiscovery is required.

“Today’s companies navigate a portfolio of risks when it comes to the use, security and privacy of corporate-controlled data around the world. This blog provides timely news and savvy practitioner perspective essential to those navigating information governance and eDiscovery risks,” said the blog’s Editor-in-Chief Patrick J. Burke, Senior Counsel in Seyfarth’s Litigation department. 

Seyfarth is one of the few law firms with a truly dedicated eDiscovery practice group — one that began well before the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure were amended in 2006. The 14-member team brings experience and talent to craft practical and defensible approaches to meet discovery obligations in litigation to comply with statutory and regulatory rules while managing the costs and the realities of operating a business in today’s economy. Members have worked with some of the country’s largest companies on eDiscovery issues in specific major litigation as well as broader strategic approaches to eDiscovery.

Carpe Datum Law marks the 17th blog in Seyfarth’s comprehensive blog portfolio, which provides in-depth and current coverage of the most complex and developing areas of law across a variety of industries. Visit the firm’s complete blog portfolio here.
