The modern legal professional is expected to handle large volumes of data that can exist in many different forms. One of these forms — and one of the most popular ways for companies to communicate with each other — is email, meaning evidence in emails is presented in almost every trial across the globe.
The average person receives over 100 emails a day, which can result in huge numbers of emails for legal review. Fortunately, there are analytics tools such as email threading that can help speed up and increase the accuracy of this process.
In this blog post, we explore how email threading can significantly improve the effectiveness of a review without the hassle of manually reviewing a person's entire inbox.
You've no doubt been involved in an email thread before. With the potential of several different people contributing to the discussion and documents being passed around, the data involved can stack up. The chronological collation and arrangement of these individual messages is called email threading.
Over time, as an individual partakes in more email threads, relevant information to a potential case can be swamped by the hundreds or thousands of emails a user sends or receives.
