Litigation Management

Overview

Organizations, especially those that are large, at one time or another, are faced with the reality of defending against a legal action filed by a counterparty or litigating against another party to protect their own legitimate interests. Litigation either as the defendant or as the plaintiff can be a costly endeavor. Problems in effectively managing litigation matters are compounded through manual tracking of legal processes, tracking case details in spreadsheets on an individual’s hard drive, and having varied case document stores such as filing cabinets, personal storage, and emails. Manual processes and tracking make it impossible to streamline case tasks and often result in missed deadlines adding to the organization’s legal and financial consequences. Lack of reporting and visibility for authorized stakeholders makes it difficult to strategically resolve litigation matters and put in place effective risk management railguards.
