sentiment_dissatisfied Before CaseFile Connect

Physically providing discovery material for review at the meeting and maintaining copies for client to review later requires logistics and material management procedures that are logistically complicated and carry expensive time requirements.

mood With CaseFile Connect

Enables client to review in advance of meeting without burdening facility staff and removing all physical logistics of handling discovery material including more efficient use of time for attorney and facility.

sentiment_dissatisfied Before CaseFile Connect

Physical inefficiency of visits are commonplace because of inconvenient and cumbersome visitation logistics where meetings often occur through glass via a telephone with a major burden to the ability to effectively review discovery material w client.

mood With CaseFile Connect

Meeting occurs from the convenience of attorney’s office and via remote data sharing and collaboration software thus allowing for more effective review of discovery between attorney and client.

Processing-in at arrival to facility by attorney requires waiting (inefficient use of time) in typically closed confines which in times of pandemic create a heightened risk to visiting attorney and to facility staff.

mood With CaseFile Connect

Pre registration and electronic check-in with identify validation make processing-in more efficient and something that can occur before the actual scheduled visitation time.

sentiment_dissatisfied Before CaseFile Connect

Access to client adds unnecessary logistics and safety risks for facility staff.  For example, all of the effort and time it takes from the request to showing up at the visiting room, etc.

mood With CaseFile Connect

Instantaneous via remote session while inmate is in cell or common area but no need to escort inmate out of typical confined area.

Processing other necessary participants to effectively assist on case – interpreters, etc.

mood With CaseFile Connect

Other participants simply pre-register and receive authorization in the same way as attorneys.

sentiment_dissatisfied Before CaseFile Connect

Long travel and wait times are common for a relatively short meeting because of logistical constraints at the facility (e.g., limited meeting rooms, long wait times until inmates arrive to meeting room).

mood With CaseFile Connect

No travel required allowing for immediacy of information exchange between attorney and client, and zero physical logistical burdens for both the attorney and the facility.

sentiment_dissatisfied Before CaseFile Connect

Physical access to discovery (e.g., documents, photographs, video) is difficult and comes in piecemeal or fits and starts making it sometimes practically impossible to complete an effective review of discovery by client in preparation of attorney client visits.

mood With CaseFile Connect

Online, secure collaboration platform stores, manages and ensures authorized access to discovery material such as documents and multimedia such as photos and video.
