    Title: Future of Our Litigation Support Profession: What Lies Ahead?
    Area of Discipline: Litigation Support Peer Group
    Description: The litigation support industry has changed significantly over the years, especially with the explosion of electronic discovery. There are more people in the field, playing different roles and possessing different skills than in the past, in law firms, corporations, government agencies, service providers, etc. Where are we going, and where do we want to go? Are standards beginning to emerge, and if not, should we be working toward them? What organizations are shaping our industry? What can we learn from organizations in related professions? We examine recent trends and look into the crystal ball to see what might be on the horizon.
