You just learned that your company was (or probably will be) sued. How
should you go about informing key employees to preserve evidence?
The first step is to issue a litigation hold notice to key individuals at
the company who may have information relevant or potentially relevant to
the lawsuit (or threatened lawsuit). The goal of the notice is to ensure
the preservation of all information in the company’s possession or control
related to the claims or defenses in the lawsuit. Failure to issue the
notice and implement the litigation hold could result in the inadvertent
destruction of relevant evidence. No litigant wants to lose the ability to
introduce evidence that would have been helpful in the lawsuit. Moreover,
destruction of relevant evidence, regardless of whether it is helpful,
could lead to judicial sanctions or a judgment against the company.

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
