Expert Presentation
ADR 102 – Navigating the ESI Nightmare: Using AI to Effectively Prepare for Mediation
Wednesday, July 8, 2026, 3:15 p.m. CT
Mediation success often hinges on knowing your documents, but the sheer volume of electronically stored information (ESI) in modern disputes can make thorough preparation feel impossible within tight timelines and budgets. In this session, HaystackID demonstrates how AI-powered tools can cut through the noise, enabling legal teams to rapidly surface key documents, identify critical themes, and build a compelling mediation narrative without the time and cost of a full-scale document review. Attendees will see a practical walkthrough of how AI can prioritize the most relevant evidence, flag hot documents, and deliver actionable case insights, turning what was once an ESI nightmare into a strategic advantage at the mediation table.
