Learn more about Legal Holds
Everlaw’s legal holds tool allows you to create and send hold notifications, schedule automatic renotification and escalation notices, track custodian acknowledgement, and connect holds and custodians to documents uploaded to the platform. You can send as many legal holds as you like to as many custodians as you like with no limits. Legal holds are stored at the database level, so all legal holds within one database should be related to a single matter. Because legal holds are needed whenever users anticipate litigation, legal holds should be the first thing users create in their databases, long before any data is uploaded to the platform.To learn more about legal hold functionality read Introduction to legal holds, Using legal holds, Legal hold custodian management.
