The role of the lawyer will inevitably change over the coming years. The legal workplaces of the very near future will inevitably comprise AI, human and hybrid legal talent. As we witness the evolution of AI and its take-up in the world at large, we are likely to experience a more measured approach and gradual warming to the evolution of this technology in the legal world throughout the next few years, which will then lead to a tsunami deployment.

What does this mean for the legal market? Begin by understanding the power of this technology, and what AI can do to support you in your transitioning role and help you continue to be successful in the months and years ahead.

DISCO Launches Case Builder; Comprehensive Solution to Empower Legal Professionals to Manage the Entire Litigation Lifecycle

New Product from DISCO Expands Company Offerings Beyond Ediscovery, Creating New Leader in Legal Technology

AUSTIN — February 3, 2020 — Legal technology leader DISCO today announced the launch of DISCO Case Builder. DISCO Case Builder is a suite of case management tools that empowers legal teams to build better stories, work smarter, and leverage past work to help clients win.

Outside of software for ediscovery and legal research, other parts of the litigation cycle are typically inefficiently managed with paper, manual processes, and disparate point solutions. As a result, legal teams are without the ability to collaborate and collectively manage evidence, case notes, witnesses, and events as they prepare for trial.

DISCO Case Builder delivers a single, cloud-based repository that manages and organizes all case materials including depositions, pleadings, correspondence, and motions. It assembles and makes searchable all case materials, provides attorneys with the tools to collaboratively work with these files, and rolls these documents and work product into an at-a-glance case dashboard that encourages best practices and recommends the actions that most affect case value.

“Case Builder will be invaluable for cases that involve numerous depositions and discovery beyond documents. It will help us remove manual and paper-based processes, organize depositions and video assets, and streamline collaboration,” said Katherine Charonko, Partner, Bailey & Glasser LLP. “DISCO has created an intuitive solution that will help our legal team work faster and smarter to help our clients win.”

Case Builder for Depositions

Available today is Case Builder for depositions, a centralized, searchable repository for all the depositions in a firm or organization. For depositions, Case Builder helps the entire case team collaboratively build their case strategy by reviewing deposition transcripts with automatically synchronized videos, identifying key issues and trends, building out witness profiles, and quickly searching to find the right information at the right time.

Additional Case Builder features rolling out in the coming months including:

  • Witness management: build a comprehensive repository of detailed witness dossiers, notes on them, and their impact on cases across the organization.
  • Timelines: create timelines that link directly to documents, depositions, and witnesses, and create graphics that can be used at trial.
  • Master file: a central repository for all filings, discovery, documents, depositions, email, and correspondence that lets legal teams quickly find what they need.

“Since our founding, our vision has been to help legal professionals deliver the highest quality of legal services more efficiently through technology that enables lawyers to focus on the practice of law,” said DISCO Founder and CEO Kiwi Camara. “DISCO delivered this with our ediscovery solution, and we are excited to roll out another new product that brings this potential across the entire litigation lifecycle. The legal profession should not be left behind when it comes to innovation, and we are excited to expand our offerings to maximize the value lawyers can deliver to their clients and organizations they serve.”
