Do you know what makes an effective legal hold? Do you even know what a legal hold is? Attend this webinar by leading national expert Brad Harris to learn what your company needs to do now to be ready for its next legal hold.

When the possibility of litigation or regulatory investigation arises, a legal hold is the first step a company must take as part of a duty to preserve potentially-relevant data. A legal hold is a notification directing employees to save pertinent information and data. Do it right and it’s a smooth process with little impact on your business. Do it wrong and it can severely compromise your case. No matter the size of your company, legal holds are a necessary reality.
