IP Litigation Discovery Escrow

During the discovery phase of litigation, there is an inherent conflict of interest between parties. Defendants must satisfy the discovery requirements of the court, while simultaneously protecting their intellectual property. For plaintiffs, it's essential that their attorneys and experts gain access to the information necessary to prepare for trial. Our expertise empowers organizations to comply efficiently with discovery provisions related to intellectual property litigation, while simultaneously reducing associated costs, response times and risk of potential exposure.

With Iron Mountain acting as a neutral third party in the discovery process, the IP Litigation Discovery Escrow Service provides a secure and controlled environment that offers tremendous benefits to all parties:

• Plaintiffs are allowed the opportunity to access and examine all pertinent intellectual property
• Defendants eliminate the potential exposure and risk associated with delivering proprietary information directly to plaintiffs
• All parties enjoy access to mutually agreeable, convenient locations via
Iron Mountain's extensive national network of secure data protection vaults
• Comfortable working environments—with onsite customer service—in which to review proprietary deposited materials
• Flexible security protocols to meet the specific needs of each individual case
