• Networking & Mentorship: Members can network with peers, seek or provide mentorship, and build relationships with others who understand the unique challenges and advantages JDs have when working in nonlegal careers. And strategies for advancement

• There is no cost to join. No obligation. No credit card is required.

• Exclusive Content: Access to articles, interviews, live and on-demand webinars, and courses created specifically for the EXJ Community.

• Includes two on-demand courses: “Financial Fluency for Lawyers” and “A Primer on Data Analytics”.

• Unique Job Board: The only job board dedicated entirely to nonlegal positions for lawyers.

• EXJ Career Diagnostic Test: A proprietary tool to help members focus on those nonlegal career opportunities closest to their individual personality and work history.

• Member Directory: Inclusion in the first-ever directory of NPLs, facilitating connections and opportunities.

Now, we turn to the practical matter of how to handle these documents once they enter the eDiscovery pipeline: particularly when processing Microsoft 365 linked documents for loading into Relativity. In our experience so far, 80 to 90 percent of the linked documents we’ve seen have come from M365 and Google Workspace – with probably 20 percent of that from Google Workspace (as discussed in our post last year).
