About Document Review Software
What is document review software? Litigation software helps you prepare your case and present it in court. All
documents associated with your case are indexed and organized in a special
database where you can annotate, highlight, clip and organize case items into
hierarchical folders.
Array supports all of the major packages, including CT
Summation iBlaze® and LexisNexis Concordance®
Array also supports Doculex and IPRO viewing and processing utilities; LiveNote and RealLegal E-Binder for transcript and exhibit review; and InData Document Director® & Trial Director® and Verdict Systems® Sanction® for trial presentation.
How is litigation software different from case management
software?
Litigation software lets you index and annotate
case documents, prioritize case items and prepare exhibit outlines. Case management software lets you track and manage the court calendar and
appointments for your case.
How do I become fluent in using litigation software?
Array Technology Group LLC. will help you select software tools appropriate to your firm and your caseload, and will train you and your staff as part of your first case
engagement. Array is familiar with all major litigation software packages and
can quickly recommend the package that meets your needs best.
