IQPC Brussels Focus: Morgan Lewis and its eData practice

October 7, 2009
/ Electronic Discovery IQPC E-Disclosure Europe (Brussels 2009)

IQPC large Morgan Lewis

At IQPC Brussels last week (click here) we had the opportunity to meet with Denise Backhouse, one of the presenters, and an associate in Morgan Lewis’s Litigation Practice and a senior member of its eData team. Denise has engaged in eDiscovery motion practice in multiple jurisdictions and has worked on discovery responses to the Securities and Exchange Commission, FINRA, and state attorneys general. She also assists clients and attorneys in analyzing and implementing cutting-edge technologies designed to provide our clients with state-of-the-art case and document management resources.

She is a co-author of an excellent white paper titled When Worlds Collide: Suggested Best Practices for Navigating European Data Protection Laws in U.S. Litigation (to access click here) which examines in detail the European Union Data Protection Directive and in the process provides an overview of related national enabling legislation. In addition, the paper broadly outlines other potentially relevant sources of law, including nationally enacted blocking statutes and other rules and regulations that should be considered by U.S. counsel when seeking to obtain information housed in a company’s European facilities.

eData is an expanding practice area created at Morgan Lewis to address the impact of electronic data on business and legal strategies. Formerly known as Legal Logistics, eData helps clients meet increasingly demanding regulatory and legal requirements with cost-effective prelitigation risk management, eDiscovery consulting, and document review.

eData partners with in-house legal, IT, and records-management teams as well as outside technology vendors to apply best practices, inside and outside litigation. The eData team plays a large role in defending clients in corporate matters, including product liability, mass torts, antitrust, M&A, regulatory, white collar, compliance, construction, insurance coverage, and complex commercial litigation.
