As we kick off our “Favorite Moments of 2025” year-end countdown, we’re starting with a milestone that defined the year: Legal Week 2025, where we celebrated 10 years of Sandline and hosted our first-ever Sandline Global Advisory Panel.
Launching the Sandline Global Advisory Panel
Legal Week marked the debut of our Advisory Panel: a hand-selected group of industry leaders joining forces to chart the future of eDiscovery.
As data volumes grow, collaboration platforms expand, and generative AI reshapes workflows, the need for strategic, collective insight has never been greater. Our CEO, Jon Canty, welcomed panel members to a session designed to:
- Foster professional development through peer-to-peer learning and expert-led discussions
- Share emerging best practices and explore evolving trends
- Provide strategic guidance on Sandline’s services and product roadmap
- Strengthen a trusted network of experienced eDiscovery professionals
The inaugural meeting set the foundation for a collaborative, future-focused initiative—one that reflects Sandline’s commitment to listening, innovating, and building with our clients at the center.
A Decade of Sandline:
Legal Week was also the perfect backdrop to celebrate Sandline’s 10-year anniversary, and we celebrated with a lineup of decade-themed events that brought together our team, partners, and clients.
✨ Y2K Bash with Cellebrite
In partnership with Cellebrite, we hosted a Y2K-themed event that delivered full nostalgia. Neon colors, retro tech callbacks, and early-2000s energy set the tone for a night of connection and fun as we celebrated how far we’ve come since the days of flip phones and dial-up.
✨ 1970s Night at Bartley Dunne’s
We kept the celebration rolling with a 1970s-themed party at Bartley Dunne’s. Vintage vibes, bold patterns, great music, and a fun crowd.
Key Takeaways from Legal Week 2025
Beyond the celebrations, Legal Week reinforced the themes defining today’s eDiscovery landscape:
A continued need for workflow and cost transparency and predictability.
Consistency over chaos in AI-enabled workflows
Rising complexity driven by chat, collaboration, and ephemeral data
Tighter alignment between legal strategy, review execution, and analytics
