Almost all lawyers are impacted by e-discovery in some way. And yet, most attorneys lack a basic understanding of the e-discovery process, says Brett Tarr, e-discovery and litigation counsel at Caesars Entertainment Corp.
As in-house counsel at Las Vegas, Nevada-based Caesars for the last four years, Tarr has faced a number of challenges, such as limited resources and a mandate to use technology that was in place before he arrived. And then there’s the fact that many of the attorneys he deals with don’t have a good grasp on the e-discovery process, he says. “They leave it all to me,” he says of the legal department at Caesars, which is roughly 120 people, 23 of which are attorneys. “There’s not a single person in the legal department that understands a bit of what I do. They say, ‘That’s why I have you.’”
