FRANKLIN, Mich., May 3 /PRNewswire/ — Spectrum Computer Forensics & Risk Management LLC, a provider of digital discovery and computer forensic services, is providing legal assistants with information on the best practices and pitfalls to avoid in the activities relating to e-discovery.

Spectrum Computer Forensics & Risk Management founder J. Stott Matthews will present at the Annual Legal Assistants Day of Education on Friday, May 4 in Frankenmuth, Michigan.

“Legal assistants and paralegals have an increasingly important role to play in the litigation process. By keeping abreast of the rapid evolution in electronic discovery and its related case law, they can help their litigators avoid expensive missteps. As the courts become more aware of the issues regarding e-discovery, a heightened sense of what is important will help them add additional value in their litigation-support efforts,” said Matthews.

The presentation centers on electronic discovery, the revised Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, and recent case law. Discovery, the critical first step in building any type of case, involves an ever increasing mountain of digital evidence. Computers and electronic devices carry a potential wealth of evidence that can be tapped with the right technology and expertise.

Litigators, senior executives and human resource professionals in a variety of organizations have utilized the services of Spectrum. The company has uncovered evidence supporting Federal cases to verifying if stolen computers have been compromised.

Attorney Carol Romej, a partner with Detroit-based Butzel Long PC, will co-present on this topic and share the perspectives of a well-seasoned e- discovery veteran.
