The Organization of Legal Professionals (OLP), a group of e-discovery attorneys and litigation support professionals, litigators, administrators and judges announced that Hunter McMahon has been named a member of its Board of Governors. McMahon serves as an eDiscovery Consultant with eLit Inc, a leading eDiscovery and Hosted Review Provider.

As a member of the Board of Governors, McMahon assists the organization with its initiatives to promote excellence and accountability among eDiscovery providers. Because of his background and experience, McMahon is ideally situated to provide advice to further the organization’s initial goal: to provide e-discovery gold-standard training  and certifications for legal professionals. OLP is a two year old non-profit association with approximately 900 members in 9 countries.

“I’m honored to be included on a board that includes so many outstanding members and household names of the legal profession,” said McMahon. “Our endeavor to improve the quality of e-discovery and to help educate its providers is important to me as well as to the entire Board of Governors. We believe that our efforts will prove valuable to the legal industry worldwide.”

“Hunter is an outstanding addition to our board,” said Chere Estrin, who chairs the OLP Board of Directors. “We rely on his in-the-trenches background in litigation and as legal service provider to help us keep a common-sense approach to education and certification that will work well for all the stakeholders in this process.”

The OLP drives education and best practices and provides certification for those involved in complex litigation support. Through its programs, the OLP ensures the requisite level of competency in complicated disciplines -- including trial support and e-discovery -- is met. It is the only organization whose members represent all sectors of the e-discovery profession:  attorneys, paralegals, technical support staff, litigation support professionals, consultants, vendors, software developers and the judiciary.
