Protect Your Documents When It Matters Most
Instantly suspend destruction policies on relevant documents and custodians when litigation is anticipated. Create defensible production sets and demonstrate compliance with preservation obligations.
When litigation is reasonably anticipated, your organisation has a legal obligation to preserve all potentially relevant documents. Failure to do so can result in sanctions, adverse inferences, and significant financial penalties. Dockria's Legal Hold capability lets you respond immediately and comprehensively.
With a few clicks, apply a legal hold to specific documents, entire document classes, or all documents associated with a particular custodian. The hold instantly overrides any active retention or disposition policies, preventing the destruction of potentially relevant materials regardless of their scheduled disposal date.
Dockria's eDiscovery tools go beyond preservation. Search, review, and tag documents for relevance, privilege, and responsiveness. Create production sets with standard numbering (Bates stamping), and export documents in formats accepted by courts and opposing counsel. The entire review process is logged for defensibility.
Legal hold notifications are automatically sent to custodians, reminding them of their preservation obligations. Track acknowledgements, send periodic reminders, and maintain a complete record of the hold process — all within the platform. When the hold is released, normal retention policies resume automatically.
