Practise the standard verbs for managing a legal hold correctly.
0 / 5 completed
1 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a legal hold notice the moment litigation becomes reasonably foreseeable, rather than waiting for a formal complaint to actually arrive.'
We 'issue a notice' — the standard, simple collocation for formally starting a legal hold. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Waiting too long to issue a hold notice can ___ relevant evidence routinely deleted before anyone realized it mattered.'
We say a late hold will 'leave' evidence deleted — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting loss. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every piece of potentially relevant data untouched, including routine deletions that would otherwise happen automatically on schedule.'
We 'preserve data' — the standard, simple collocation for keeping potentially relevant material intact under a hold. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ receipt of the hold notice from every custodian individually, so nobody can later claim they simply never saw it.'
We 'acknowledge receipt' — the standard, simple collocation for confirming someone received a formal notice. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the hold formally once litigation concludes, rather than leaving normal deletion policies suspended indefinitely with no clear end.'
We 'lift a hold' — the standard, simple collocation for formally ending a legal hold once it's no longer needed. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
