West Virginia e-Discovery Conference

The West Virginia e-Discovery Conference is on the campus of the Marshall University Forensics Science Center in Huntington, WV on Oct. 28 from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Second Creek Technologies LLC and Marshall University are offering a full day of training focusing on electronic discovery and forensics topics.

John Sammons, CEO of Second Creek, says, "This is the first of an annual event that we plan to put on every year. We plan to bring in experts and practitioners from around the state to help keep the legal community -- and their clients -- up to speed on the growing field of electronic discovery and computer forensics. We also view this as an opportunity for academia as well. Students and professors can also benefit.

"This event will provide a bridge for the students and faculty to the front lines of electronic discovery and computer forensics. They will get to hear, first hand, from practitioners in the field about the current challenges they face and how they are conquering them."

The cost of the event is $180 per person. Lunch and a ticket to the Thundering Herd's football game against Houston later that day are also included.
