E-Discovery, Simplified: Virtual Paralegal Support for Florida Litigators
Discovery deadlines. Endless document review. Privilege logs that take hours. For many Florida litigators, managing e-discovery is one of the most time-consuming and stressful aspects of civil litigation. But it doesn’t have to be.
At Cornerstone Paralegal Group, we help Florida attorneys simplify their litigation process with reliable, experienced virtual paralegal support—especially when it comes to e-discovery. Whether you're a solo attorney juggling court appearances or a growing firm managing multiple matters, we’re here to keep you on track, organized, and court-compliant.
1. What Is E-Discovery—and Why Does It Eat Up Your Week?
E-discovery involves more than just requesting or producing documents. It’s the structured and rule-bound process of collecting, reviewing, organizing, and producing electronically stored information (ESI) in litigation. That includes emails, PDFs, scanned files, texts, and digital files pulled from clients, third parties, and opposing counsel.
For Florida attorneys, failure to manage discovery properly can result in court sanctions, missed deadlines, and unhappy clients. And yet, many firms still try to do it all in-house, losing precious hours of attorney time to manual work that experienced paralegals can handle efficiently.
2. What Paralegals Can (and Should) Do During E-Discovery
Paralegals are instrumental in streamlining the discovery process. At Cornerstone, we assist with:
Drafting interrogatories, requests for production (RFPs), and requests for admissions
Reviewing and summarizing discovery responses
Communicating with clients to request and organize responsive documents
Indexing and categorizing large volumes of discovery
Creating and managing privilege logs
Formatting production sets, including Bates numbering
Preparing response packets and coordinating production
Tracking response deadlines and objections
Our team is trained in Florida procedural rules and works with attorneys to ensure full compliance with state and local requirements.
3. How Cornerstone Makes It Seamless
