I’m trying to get a little conversation going among the contract/temporary/document review attorneys in Houston Texas. Maybe we can share some info on reviews coming up, where to work, where not to work…where you can go to the bathroom without checking in with someone first…Where you can see out the windows.
Or, maybe we can talk about what’s going to be happening with document review in the next few years. Will lawyers be able to make a living doing this in the US? Will all the jobs go to India? Will just some of the jobs leave? Will first pass review be off-shored leaving only higher level review to be done here?
How about the impact changes in electronic discovery have had on the process of document review? Can you succeed at this without understanding what’s going on with the technological changes in collecting, filtering and processing electronically stored information?
Give me your thoughts…what are the biggest issues facing contract attorneys in Houston?
