The legal landscape is changing. While many of the practices adopted at the height of lockdown simply made the best of a bad situation, there has been an irreversible move towards greater flexibility across all sectors. Even in the legal space – which has historically been slower to adapt than other industries – there is compelling data to show that attitudes in workforces, from specialist firms to general counsel, have undergone a significant change.
According to research from Thomson Reuters published earlier this year – which surveyed close to 2,500 UK legal professionals – 63% of lawyers would prefer to work hours of their choosing, compared to just 22% who felt this way before 2020. The same report found that across all responses, those surveyed wanted to spend an average of 2.1 days per week working from home. Before lockdown measures were implemented, this average was around 0.5 days.
So it would appear that, against the odds, flexibility is here to stay for the legal sector. Or at least those that recognise the benefits it has to offer in terms of productivity, quality of work and employee wellbeing. But what does this mean for eDiscovery?
To achieve such flexibility while working on an eDiscovery project, having the right technology is vital. But the benefits of these technologies go much further than flexibility itself.
Read on to find out which technologies can make your eDiscovery operations faster, more flexible and farther-reaching than before.
