Between home and work, our data is everywhere. Collaborative tools like Microsoft Teams send us weekly digest emails telling us what days were our busiest, and how often we respond to emails after hours. How has this been/is being used in litigation? From the in-house perspective, how can, and should, we collect anything more complicated than typical files or emails? This course explores smart device data in litigation and provides tips regarding discovery/producing employee data kept by companies.
