Our experts will walk through best practices for conducting effective custodial interviews, identifying and preserving key data sources, and leveraging collaborative workflows that reduce risk and enhance review accuracy. Attendees will gain practical insights on integrating interviews with real-time collections, using tools like screen sharing, documenting workflows for defensibility, and addressing common client objections.
