Who did what when?

Creating a timeline is a key component in litigation. In order to bring evidence to light and uncover who did what when, it’s essential to map out important facts to get an overview. The use of technology can help lawyers speed up this process and connect the dots in a more effective way.  

Today, most lawyers create their timelines manually without any tools to support them in the process. Taking on a case and conducting an Early Case Assessment incorporates large amounts of information and a very high number of documents that lawyers have to go through. This is a time-consuming task and it can be difficult to determine which pieces of information are actually important or relevant to the case.
