Perkins Coie LLP Goes Live with ECFX Notice at Three More Offices as Part of National Rollout

Perkins Coie LLP has deployed ECFX Notice, the leading electronic court filing (ECF) notice solution, in their Chicago, Denver, and Boise offices, the latest in a nationwide rollout of the platform. The Seattle based international law firm with more than 1,200 lawyers provides a full array of corporate, commercial litigation, intellectual property and regulatory legal advice to a broad range of clients. The firm now uses ECFX Notice in ten of their offices, including Seattle, New York, Washington, DC, and Dallas.

ECFX Notice is a state-of-the-art SaaS solution that downloads the documents in court notices, distributes the notices and documents directly to the case team, and stores the documents in the appropriate matter or client workspace in any DMS or file system. This process greatly reduces the amount of time required to process court filings, as well as diminishing the associated risk of error from incorrectly filed notices – giving law firms more control over their documents.

“When I first started, I wanted to find a way to streamline the processing of ECFs and get our team out of having to download every notice,” explained Arthur Aguilar, National Docketing Manager at Perkins Coie. “When we expanded nationally and did a canvas of the team, each person was spending upwards of two and a half days per week just working in the DMS – downloading and putting in items, moving them around and renaming them. Now, no human being has to handle the system – ECFX is running in the background, and does it automatically.”

“I’ve always believed that taking mundane tasks and automating them is one of the best uses of technology,” commented Dan O’Day, ECFX Co-founder and CEO. “When you do things manually, it is costly – it takes time and it is difficult to have control, because you have to train every staff member to do things the same way, which increases risk.”

Perkins Coie plans to roll out ECFX Notice to their remaining seven US offices in the coming months. ECFX Notice has them covered because ECFX has taken the approach of partnering with their rapidly growing list of law firm clients to deliver integrations with the courts and third-party providers that matter most. Following this approach, ECFX has rapidly covered all the major markets including all federal courts and is now focusing on the smaller providers that are important to their clients.

ECFX

ECFX was founded by legal and technology experts with a single goal: to address unmet automation needs in the legal industry. It is committed to filling in the gaps in legal workflows with intelligently automated solutions, enabling firms to save time, gain control, mitigate risk, and improve visibility. Its premier product, ECFX Notice, automates the downloading, profiling, storing, and distribution of court documents in ECF notices for both State and Federal courts—saving your firm hundreds of hours a week to focus on the work your clients value.


ECFX Notice adds support for Wisconsin, Oregon, Nevada, Idaho and more in just 30 Days!

ECFX Notice, the leading electronic court filing (ECF) notice solution, has added support for five (5) new courts in the last thirty days, including state courts in Wisconsin, Oregon, Nevada, and Idaho, as well as a specialty court in Illinois.

“The ECFX Notice platform was designed to quickly and easily add new court notice providers according to the needs of our clients,” said Dan O’Day, ECFX Co-founder and CEO. “We add courts based on client demand and work closely with them to ensure 100% coverage for their incoming notices.”

ECFX Notice is a state-of-the-art SaaS solution that downloads the documents in court notices, distributes the notices and documents directly to the case team, and stores the documents in the appropriate matter or client workspace in any DMS or file system.

Instead of selecting only jurisdictions with a large volume of notices, ECFX has taken the approach of partnering with their rapidly growing list of law firm clients to deliver integrations with the courts and third-party providers that matter most. Following this approach, ECFX has rapidly covered all the major markets including all federal courts and is now focusing on the smaller providers that are important to their clients. This has resulted in nationwide court coverage including 27 different providers with new providers added regularly to meet current client demands.

“ECFX elevates our Firm’s efficiency in processing electronic court filings!” asserted Krystal Bigley, Firm Administrator at Allen Vellone Wolf Helfrich & Factor P.C. “In addition to covering all Federal and Colorado state courts, they added JAG and Denver County Court. So 100% of our notices are managed automatically with ECFX. We transitioned a full-time dedicated staff member away from manually pulling, saving, naming, and circulating pleadings through this automation, allowing our staff to focus on substantive legal assistance. ECFX does all of this automatically, including sending our clients an Allen Vellone Wolf Helfrich & Factor branded email at 6:00 PM daily when pleadings are received. Our stakeholders staff, attorneys, and clients are pleased, so am I.”

ECFX, the leading provider of electronic court filing (ECF) notice management solutions, and Thomson Reuters, the world’s leading source of intelligent information, have joined forces to provide the legal industry’s first automated solution for downloading State and Federal ECF notice documents and saving them directly into Thomson Reuters HighQ or ProLaw®.

“The integration will give HighQ and ProLaw clients access to court documents within seconds of an ECF notice being received from State and Federal courts,” said Dan O’Day, ECFX Co-Founder and CEO. “Approximately 30 seconds after a notice arrives from the court, ECF Notice will profile and save documents into HighQ or ProLaw and deliver a customized email notification with PDF documents or links to the profiled documents.” Additionally, the integration will simplify linking court documents to the Westlaw Legal Calendaring Rules docket within ProLaw matters.

ECFX Notice is a state-of-the-art SaaS solution that connects the court notices to the appropriate matter or client workspace in HighQ and ProLaw. It will also store all ECF notices and documents in the cloud as part of its service.

The Thomson Reuters Legal Professionals Partner Program is designed to provide clients with state-of-the-art innovation to overcome unique challenges in the business and practice of law. Through the program, the integration between ECFX, HighQ, and ProLaw will eliminate the time-consuming task of manually profiling ECF notice documents. Litigation firms often process hundreds or thousands of court documents per week. On average, the manual process of downloading, profiling, storing, and distributing notices and documents takes 10-20 minutes per notice. ECFX Notice handles the entire process automatically, freeing up time for legal staff to utilize their knowledge and expertise to do work the firm’s clients value.

“We are excited to partner with Thomson Reuters market-leading products to strengthen our common commitment to improve the lives of our mutual customers,” said Dan O’Day.
