Have you ever worked on a complicated case that was made even more complicated by a lack of information?
Here’s the thing: your problem is not a lack of information, but a lack of information available quickly.
In other words, information is available; you just can’t find it quickly enough
As a result, the various elements of the case are disconnected, and you and your team struggle to stay on top of things. Stakeholders’ documents, files, comments, exhibits, transcripts, etc. are all in different places and different teams have their own unique workflows, so you struggle to find required documents and information. As a result, you are frequently unable to build and prove your case effectively. Ultimately, this leads to stress and chaos among everyone working on the case, along with too many unbillable hours, unhappy clients, and a weaker bottomline.
Sound familiar?
Now, here’s the good news: You can eliminate all these problems very easily!
All you need is a software-based solution to organise all case files in a centralised location. By doing this, you can connect various case elements, get all the key information you need quickly, accelerate insights, and even improve collaboration among all stakeholders.
The solution has a name: Litera Litigate.
Litera Litigate will provide all the important case-related information you need at your fingertips.
Why does this matter?
How will Litigate help you derive order out of chaos in your litigation management workflows?
Let’s take a look.
Why Legal Teams Need Litera Litigate
Too many legal teams suffer from a problem of “information asymmetry”. One team has access to required information but another doesn’t. The problem gets worse when different teams use different workflows and document management systems.
When they all have to work together, guess what happens?
Team members find it hard to access and share information, collaborate with each other, and build the case effectively. Delays and errors simply add to unbillable hours, which will affect your company’s (or department’s) bottomline and also result in unhappy clients.
Litera Litigate is a great way to eliminate these issues. This world-class litigation management platform centralises and connects case-related information. It modernises traditional workflows, allowing these teams to organise and link every file, make them searchable, and stay synced throughout the case.
As a legal professional, you know that case details change rapidly. To keep up, you need to know where information is, and you need to find it quickly. Here’s where you will find Litera Litigate extremely useful. With Litigate, anyone can search for documents, files, comments, exhibits, and transcripts at any time. According to Litera, searches can also be up to 56X faster with Litigate, which means huge time savings, more efficient workflows, and more productive workers. Plus, all case-related information is tagged, so it’s literally available at your fingertips, allowing you to build and prove your case faster and more effectively than before. In short, Litera Litigate helps legal teams to stay connected throughout the case and accelerate insights for successful case outcomes.
Key Features of Litera Litigate to Benefit Your Legal Team and Workflows
Litera Litigate is packed with numerous features to help you transform chaos to order. For example, you can leverage custom tagging and hyperlinking to connect all relevant documents and enable real-time collaboration. With this powerful, user-friendly tool, you don’t have to depend on complex folder structures or Excel worksheets to build and use case connections.
You can also use the software’s smart keyword search engine to search for and find the documents, files, comments, exhibits, and transcripts you need at any time. Plus, Litigate will convert any non-searchable files using powerful OCR technology as soon you upload them, making them easy to find on-demand.
Litigate also makes it easy for team members to catch up on a case, no matter when they enter it or at which stage. This is because all case materials get automatically linked to the subject witness and displayed within a summary page. The page provides an at-a-glance view of these materials (deposition transcripts, affidavits, binders, witness interview notes, etc.) so anyone can learn about the case and start contributing to it almost from Day 1.
Some other features of Litera Litigate that will help you master a successful case:
- Dynamic electronic binders so you can effortlessly create, edit, reorder, export, and print case materials as required
- Consolidation of everyone’s notes and highlighted key findings so the entire litigation team is always in sync
- Court reporter files (including videos) can be easily imported and accessed alongside all other case-related assets
Leverage all these features to save time on everyday litigation tasks. And when you save time, you can focus more on what really matters: winning the case and generating the best possible outcome for the client.
