Part 6: The Discovery Process Explained

Discovery is one of the most intensive phases of litigation. During this stage, both sides exchange information and evidence relevant to the case. This can include documents, emails, contracts, and other records.

Discovery may also involve depositions, where witnesses provide sworn testimony, and written questions known as interrogatories. In complex cases, this process can be time-consuming and costly.

For companies, discovery often requires significant internal effort. Organizing records, preserving communications, and coordinating with legal counsel are essential to ensuring compliance and building a strong case.
