Multi-national companies face litigation challenges throughout the world, often including discovery demands and requests for data hosted, maintained, and shared by employees and servers across offices. Companies and their attorneys and advisors must understand the risks associated with responding to discovery demands, sharing data, and coordinating different categories of litigation, including patent and intellectual property, trade secrets, mass torts, class actions, and commercial arbitrations and disputes. The panel will address how to manage obstacles associated with demands for data stored in different countries with different privacy laws and treaties.  Topics that arise are: GDPR enforcement issues, managing multilingual teams of document review attorneys in different countries, government restrictions, preservation requirements, how to protect attorney-client privilege, and how to work with multiple business units to create efficient processes for collection and production. The panel will also discuss practical lessons regarding how to handle varying expectations within the company, coordinating resources, and developing efficient and effective litigation strategies.
