The New CLEF: A Stronger, Growing Community for Plaintiff E-Discovery
E-discovery is a critical component of modern litigation, yet resources tailored specifically for plaintiff attorneys remain limited. The Complex Litigation E-Discovery Forum (CLEF) was founded to change that. Our mission is to provide a dedicated space for plaintiff-side legal professionals to access education, resources, and peer-driven discussions that help them navigate the complexities of e-discovery.
Now, CLEF is evolving into something even greater—a stronger, growing community built to empower plaintiff attorneys and litigation professionals. With new members joining every week, CLEF is rapidly becoming the go-to resource for plaintiffs who need practical strategies, expert insights, and a network of like-minded professionals to support their work in e-discovery.
CLEF is more than a resource—it is a community that fosters career growth. Whether new to e-discovery or a seasoned professional, CLEF offers opportunities to develop new skills, expand your knowledge, and connect with others who share your challenges and goals.
A New Look, A Stronger Vision
CLEF has undergone a transformation. With a new logo and refreshed branding, we are embracing the next phase of our mission—building an engaged and active community that advocates for plaintiffs in e-discovery and drives innovation in the legal industry.
But CLEF is not just about looking different—it is about doing more. We have launched a new website and member platform designed to provide:
- Educational resources tailored to the plaintiff-side e-discovery community
- Networking opportunities to connect with peers facing similar challenges
- Expert insights and discussions on evolving e-discovery issues
- Industry updates to help members stay ahead of trends and best practices
- Career growth support through mentorship, skill-building, and community-driven learning
Expanding Beyond the Website
Our mission goes beyond the digital platform. We are actively building a larger presence through social media, ensuring that plaintiff professionals have multiple ways to engage, learn, and connect.
CLEF is now on LinkedIn, where we will share thought leadership, event updates, and discussions that matter to plaintiff-side e-discovery. YouTube and other social channels are coming soon, providing even more ways for members to access education and community-driven content. We encourage you to follow CLEF on LinkedIn and be part of the conversation. As we continue to grow, we want our members to shape the direction of CLEF, contributing ideas, insights, and experiences that strengthen our collective knowledge.
For too long, plaintiffs in e-discovery have lacked dedicated resources and a strong community. CLEF is changing that. Our growing network allows plaintiff professionals to learn, share, and advocate for better e-discovery practices.
The new CLEF is here—stronger, more connected, and committed to supporting your success in e-discovery and beyond.
