Anyone know where I can find a #Hulk toothbrush? Such a sweet, simple request on my son's #christmaslist, but I'm having trouble finding it! Today he played #HulkSmash 50 times; so much energy available for dental hygiene! 😂 @Disney @Marvel @MarvelStudios @MarkRuffalo @Avengers


If you missed this morning's keynote for #RelativityFest, take a look at our blog for a recap. We shared a ton of exciting announcements this morning! relativity.com/blog/forward-r…


Took a little break from #RelativityFest to check on these feathered friends. 2020 is wild.

Alex: It's just as important -- if not more -- to go off-script with questions during custodian interviews vs. sticking to your pre-defined list. Custodians will reveal unexpected information, and you need to be prepared and comfortable with following that path. #RelativityFest


Alex: It's your obligation as an #attorney to understand how your client is using technology. If your client is using a tool you aren't familiar with, get familiar or bring in an expert. You can't just skip things you don't understand during custodian interviews. #RelativityFest


Erica: Pay attention to a custodian's physical and other cues during an interview. Remember: this person may eventually be a witness during a trial, so it's extremely valuable to have this insight early on, as it may better inform your case strategy. #RelativityFest #ediscovery


Tim: #Attorneys, during custodian interviews, make the Upjohn warning clear: "I represent the company, not you." But it's an art, not a science, to know when and how to share this without making the custodian uneasy. Tread carefully. #RelativityFest #ediscovery


Erica Noel, McDermott: Understand that custodian and IT interviews for #ediscovery are not "one and done." You need to be open to circling back to confirm or clarify as needed, because new details emerge and you want to be well-informed. #RelativityFest


Alex Godofsky, McDermott: When interviewing custodians, don't ask "Do you use other communication tools for work?" Ask about specific apps: "Do you use Slack? Skype? WhatsApp? Texting?" You'll get better, more accurate answers and set aside forgetfulness issues. #RelativityFest


Tim Gleason, McDermott: Interviewing custodians via phone may make for easier scheduling, but you could miss important body language cues and custodians are less likely to take it seriously. If geography is a problem, consider a video conference as a compromise. #RelativityFest


Custodian interviews aren't just a time to add new custodians to your list for a case -- you may also discover that some initially listed custodians aren't involved after all, before you waste time and resources collecting and reviewing their data. #RelativityFest #ediscovery


Our speakers are starting this one with skit and a question: what's wrong with this interview? Attendees noticed a lack of follow-up questions, poor privilege advice, and more -- very common problems. #RelativityFest

Gregory Sullivan: A review of large scope, with major time limitations and a modest budget from the client, would not be possible without tools provided by @RelativityHQ. #RelativityFest #ediscovery


Matt: Email threading helps investigatory teams track down not just the trails a single email thread can take among custodians, but also any missing documents in a conversation. This is critical information when tracking down actors in a legal matter. #RelativityFest #ediscovery


Terrence: Textual near-duplicates identify similar but edited documents, and allow reviewers to compare differences in the viewer. These versions of docs can be tracked along the Case Dynamics timeline, to review how case facts are linked to changes in the data. #RelativityFest


Matt Maslow: Dashboards help a review team convene on hot documents and understand a data set. Widgets can be used to visually confirm whether relevant docs spike during hot periods on the initial Case Dynamics timeline, thus painting a big picture. #RelativityFest #ediscovery


Terrence Laukkanen: Case Dynamics is a Relativity app that provides a central location for collaboration. By tying each fact or event to the source document proving it, an investigative team is able to conduct faster and higher quality fact-checking. #RelativityFest


In this session, a team from @Deloitte is telling a delightful story about how @RelativityHQ's platform helps pull together the many pieces in your patchwork of data to tell a story and answer the ever-important investigatory question: What happened? #RelativityFest
