Brett Burney’s Summary

I provide targeted consulting services for both corporate executives and legal professionals in the areas of electronic discovery and litigation support. Backed by my years of experience, I efficiently manage projects that require the collection of electronic information for discovery purposes and provide a plan for efficient review of the data.

I also work with corporations to devise consistent and effective records retention policies in the interest of being prepared to respond to an e-discovery request.

I am also experienced in supporting trial teams as they seek to develop electronic exhibits and present digital documents in a court room or hearing.
