Cliff Brinson Presents on the New E-Discovery Rules at the NCADA Fall Meeting

The North Carolina Association of Defense Attorneys (NCADA) recently invited Smith Anderson lawyer, Cliff Brinson, to offer his insights into the newly promulgated electronic discovery rules and their practical implication during the discovery process.
