Case Anywhere: Online Case Management

Shawn Aiken and Tim Thomason accept parties' submissions using the Case Anywhere platform

Our office has partnered with Case Anywhere , a leading online case management provider that specializes in setting up and hosting legal proceedings on its secure website. Through this alliance, lawyers and parties have access to a private, dedicated case hub to transmit documents, communicate regarding case matters, and track upcoming events. The Case Anywhere system allows us to streamline and efficiently manage your proceeding from initiation until final disposition.

Among other benefits, Case Anywhere offers the following: 

Comprehensive Case Hub. The platform aggregates several critical case management functions in a central location, promoting cost savings and convenience. Through each dedicated site, users can: 

• Access uploaded documents organized in a color-coded electronic file cabinet that can be searched and sorted to facilitate easy retrieval of records.
• Communicate with Shawn Aiken, Tim Thomason, their case manager, DeAnn Buchmeier, and all counsel through a case-specific message board.
• Upload memos, documents, and supporting materials, including deposition transcripts, exhibits, and hearing transcripts for anywhere, anytime access.
• Follow a customized case calendar that tracks upcoming events in your matter.
  

Efficient Filing and Service. Each case site includes a streamlined interface for filing documents with our office and serving other parties. E-filing and e-service saves time and money. Moreover, because notifications generated from filing and service transactions contain document links, issues relating to document size and security that can arise when sharing files by email attachment are avoided. The receipt of any notification can also be independently verified through the system, eliminating disputes as to whether a document was filed or received by opposing counsel.

Remote Access. In an increasingly mobile legal workplace environment, having access to case documents, communications, and calendar events at your fingertips is critical. Through your dedicated hubs, access your case file anywhere in the world via a secure internet connection. As documents and postings are added, the system automatically updates and sends out real-time notifications. The online system can also play a key role in connecting attorneys and professional staff members across various offices.

Easy to Use. Each case hub is straightforward in design. Navigating your way around the system is intuitive and does not require reading a manual or sitting through a training session. An internet connection, a web browser, an email address, and the ability to open a PDF document are the only requirements to use this service. If you need assistance, Case Anywhere’s experienced team of legal and technical professionals are available to help.

Secure Platform. Security is of critical importance, and a proactive, comprehensive approach has been taken to safeguard client data, access, and privacy. The system is securely hosted in Microsoft Azure and monitored 24/7 by Azure Security Technology. Each case file is supported by secure socket layer (SSL) protection, multi-factor authentication, and database encryption. All data is monitored and backed up.
