About me
Jill Bindler is the firm’s go-to advisor on all aspects of eDiscovery in litigation and investigations involving complex, high-volume data obligations. Leader of the firm’s eDiscovery Practice Group, she guides Gray Reed’s legal teams and clients’ legal and IT departments through every phase of the eDiscovery process, from document preservation and collection to review and production. Jill’s goal is the same in every case – provide an accurate, cost-effective process to reduce responsive documents to a more manageable size, while also helping clients maintain compliance with all eDiscovery legal and ethical requirements, including compliance with protective orders, confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements and protecting information covered by attorney-client privilege and work product protection.
Jill regularly works with clients to guide them in implementing appropriate Data Retention Policy, Legal Hold Protocols, and preventing internal loss of data or spoliation issues.
An accomplished trial lawyer, Jill achieved favorable results in numerous complex commercial litigation, patent infringement, and criminal matters before deciding to focus primarily on eDiscovery. She has been dedicated to pro bono service throughout her career and continues to represent indigent defendants in federal court through her service on the Criminal Justice Act Panel.
Before joining Gray Reed, Jill clerked with the Honorable Alex H. McGlinchey of the Northern District of Texas – Fort Worth Division and was an associate lawyer at McKool Smith and Brackett & Ellis. Before entering private practice, she was an Assistant Federal Public Defender and an intern for Magistrate Judge Judith K. Guthrie of the Eastern District of Texas – Tyler Division.
