(PRWEB) May 28, 2014 -- Jordan Lawrence, the leading provider of records management and information governance solutions, today announced they will participate in a CLE webinar titled Rewind: Goldilocks and Business Records: Too Many, Too Few, or Just Right? Business and Litigation Perspectives. The expert panel will include Mark Sableman, Partner at Thompson Coburn LLP to address the legal considerations and Rebecca Perry, Director of Professional Services of Jordan Lawrence will explain how to develop defensible rules.

In the age of eDiscovery, record retention is extremely important from a legal standpoint, and from a business standpoint. Businesses find themselves trying to walk the fine line between what is enough to protect themselves legally, and what is too much from a business cost perspective. How does a business find the safe – and cost-effective – middle ground?
To meet legal obligations, all companies must have a retention schedule that provides the time periods and related procedures for routine disposal of obsolete records that have met regulatory obligations and valid business requirements. A company’s retention schedule ensures that email and other records are kept as long as legally and operationally required and that obsolete records are disposed of in a systematic and controlled manner.
“By putting rules and processes in place, companies can find the middle ground on protecting themselves legally without the added costs and risks of retaining too much information,” Rebecca Perry, Director of Professional Services at Jordan Lawrence.
