LEXZUR, you can efficiently manage Litigation Cases at every stage in a smart and agile central software workspace, where users can collaborate with internal and external stakeholders, keep track of legal deadlines and automate reminders sent as emails or notifications.

First, you have to add Litigation Cases to your database. You do that through the quick New button in the navigation menu.


There are some fields that need to be filled out such as the case name, practice area, arrival date, and client and opponent name and position, in addition to some information such as due date, assignee user, matter rate, or custom fields.

You can now track and manage all your litigation cases from one grid. From the Matters tab choose Litigation Cases.

Start by using the advanced filters that will help you search for a specific Litigation Case based on the criteria of your selection. For example, you can search for cases by practice area, assignee, Client name, and so on.


Also, you can save these filters for later use, and export the results to a spreadsheet for reporting.

On the stages and activities tab, you can add and track litigation stages, hearings, events, tasks, and reminders.
