Identifying your Data Universe

Raposa Consulting has extensive experience providing Litigation Support / Electronic Discovery and Investigative support to in-house and external legal teams faced with responding to Regulatory requests from both US and UK authorities.

Identifying the Data Universe is a vital first stage in any E-Discovery process. An unstructured initial approach to data collection can have a significant impact on evidence preservation, schedule and cost, as well as the integrity of the response provided to a Regulator or the Court.

Raposa runs facilitated workshops to assist Clients scope out their Data Universe. Largely this work is conducted as a reaction to a request/demand for information from a Regulator or the courts and as a precursor to collection. However, the workshops can also be used in a pro-active manner to ensure Companies are better prepared for potential future litigation.
