Mastering E-Discovery, Legal Tech, and Herding Digital Cats at Your Firm

Digital information management is a delicate balancing act, connecting the moving parts of a busy legal operation with the information technologists who manage the data. How do you pull an entire office together and manage and leverage all that information?  Guest Stephanie Clerkin is the Director of Litigation Support at Korein Tillery and a 2024 recipient of the Gayle O’Connor Spirit Award, which celebrates e-discovery and legal technology leaders who make noteworthy contributions to the fields of e-discovery, legal tech, information governance, cybersecurity, and data privacy. The award is named for the late Gayle O’Connor.  Hear some of the secrets of bringing people together around technology (even dragging along some of the stragglers who have “always done it this way”). You’ll learn to adapt to different styles, demonstrate the value of efficient data management, and sometimes do more with less. Legal tech and data management never sleeps. Helping everyone – from support staff to senior attorneys – keep up is a challenge.  Finding a mentor, establishing a work life balance, and mastering technology test us all, but Clerkin has tips you can put to work now.  Mentioned in This Episode: Gayle O’Connor Spirit Award announcement Relativity e-discovery platform Relativity certifications Make-A-Wish Young Professionals NALA Conference & Expo 2025 NALA, The Paralegal Association Learn more about your ad choices.
