ABOUT EDPN
Our current Director is Danielle Marbury of WilmerHale, who is located at WilmerHale’s Palo Alto, California office.
The E-Discovery Paralegals Network was founded in 2008 by Robin Elizabeth Margolis, a career paralegal and writer, who was frustrated at the lack of a central forum where she could network with other e-discovery paralegals and find out about resources specifically for e-discovery paralegals.
The E-Discovery Paralegals Network (EDPN) is intended to be an organization for e-discovery paralegals, paralegals interested in learning more about e-discovery, and legal professionals who are interested in the growth of paralegals in this field.
Membership in EDPN
We welcome as primary members law firm paralegals who currently working in the e-discovery field, as well as paralegals who want to learn more about it, and student paralegals who may wish to specialize in it.
We are also happy to welcome as primary members paralegals working within, or interested in, other e-discovery, litigation, legal, and information technology organizations. We also welcome paralegal educators and paralegal consultants.
We welcome as associate members legal professionals who are not paralegals, but who are interested in assisting the growth of paralegals in the e-discovery field. Lawyers, IT professionals, e-discovery vendors, legal employment professionals, and other people involved in e-discovery are encouraged to contact us.
Membership Is Free At The Present Time
At the present time, membership is free. Later, as we grow larger, a reasonable dues structure will be set up.
If you join us, you will receive an email newsletter, and, as we grow, job bank mailings, and as many other benefits as we can create.
