This article provides an overview of how Law In Order creates an eBrief for clients.

Obviously, the process can change depending on our client's requirements; which parts they decide to do inhouse including the capabilities and time the client has. In short, our team can do as little or as much as the client requires.

Steps for Brief Preparation

The first step in preparing a brief is to obtain or assume a page count by conducting a review of the material to be briefed. This enables our team to provide a cost estimate. This applies to hard copy material, electronic material or a mixture of both.

Often, the next stage is assisting clients to deduplicate and clean up the material. We start by delimiting the data, which involves working through bundles of documents to separate them into individual documents. With a large PDF, this is accomplished by finding the start and end of each document.
