Who it's for

Law firms

A firm may handle several disputes under the same organization, each with a different court, counterparty and responsible attorney. Give each engagement its own matter record. The owner and engagement reference keep the team's work legible, while conflict reviews show why the firm took the case. Court deadlines and dated events follow the matter through filing and review.

How Litigation Management is set up for you

Open the case carefully

Confirm the client, counterparty, jurisdiction and matter owner before staff begin work.

Record the conflict decision

Counsel can see the reviewer, date, outcome and evidence for the engagement.

Track court commitments

Coordinators prepare deadlines and counsel checks the court calendar and filing receipt.

Preserve the production trail

A recipient, authorization reference and hash identify material that was sent.

A firm may handle several disputes under the same organization, each with a different court, counterparty and responsible attorney. Give each engagement its own matter record. The owner and engagement reference keep the team's work legible, while conflict reviews show why the firm took the case. Court deadlines and dated events follow the matter through filing and review.

Start with an active matter that has an upcoming filing and a document likely to be produced. Enter the parties, conflict decision and engagement reference. Add the court deadline with its source evidence, then ask counsel to review the submitted revision. Keep the filing receipt and resulting operation receipt available to the matter team. Use a second case with a similar counterparty name to test intake discipline.

The first rehearsal should show who owns each date, which revision the attorney saw and how a failed result is investigated. Keep historical filings and document productions distinct from current working versions. When the team can reconstruct the case from its record number and evidence, expand to more matters and owners.
