Strategic Insights:
Many organizations have collections of paper and electronic documents that have been retained without purpose or direction. Assessing whether this information can be destroyed and, if so, how to go about handling that process, can present complicated regulatory and legal issues, especially for those who are confronted with long-standing, sometimes overlapping preservation obligations. Redgrave LLP has a proven track record of significantly reducing the risks and better controlling the costs associated with the management of this type of information including:
- Obsolete Data that exists in an obsolescent form, such as on storage mediums no longer in use and supported
- Orphaned Data that no one is responsible for managing
- Dormant Data that may have an owner and be accessible, but is not actively used or accessed
- Unorganized Data retained without sufficient organization to allow for effective management

Tailored Solutions:
The Redgrave LLP approach is based on our extensive experience with a multitude of clients in a wide variety of industries facing significant legacy data challenges. The Redgrave approach is:
- Iterative: Involves gathering readily available information, making assessments and working collaboratively with clients to determine whether collecting additional information is required and/or cost-effective
- Practical: Leverages logical assessments like spot-checking and sampling to gain a sense of the nature of the legacy data/materials, rather than following a rote and unworkable box or document-level review process
- Risk-focused: Concentrates on critical preservation and retention obligations
- Defensible: Confirms the defensibility of the investigation and disposition decision-making process through interactions with the legal case teams and records and information management teams, conducting additional in-depth reviews of random samples of legacy data or further investigative steps if/when necessary, and providing the necessary documentation of decisions, processes and analysis
