Popular media loves the \u201cambulance chaser\u201d archetype, where unscrupulous plaintiffs counsel race to be the first to meet with an injured individual.\u00a0<\/p>\n

While this trope is most useful in works of fiction, there is one adjacent kernel of truth: Being first to act on new litigation developments carries business advantages.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Enter CourtLink enhanced by Snapshot alert summaries, which deliver instantaneous information that helps litigators expand their client base and better serve the clients they have.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The CourtLink system contains over 322 million court documents, comprising the federal court system along with 1,351 state courts. And paired with Snapshot, a generative AI tool that automatically sends users complaint summaries within alerts, new case filings show up as soon as they are available.<\/p>\n

This means you can be among the first to know the defendants named in a litigation matter or creditors named in a bankruptcy filing \u2014 allowing you to follow all of your prospects and clients.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Once you decide to follow a case, you can immediately learn of any new developments to streamline your research, and you can fully customize the information you receive.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You can even get profiles of law firms, judges, and courts to further enhance your business and litigation research \u2014 learning the competitor firms that represent your clients in other practice areas or the experience of your judge in a certain type of case, for example.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s all delivered in user-friendly summaries, representing an ideal use case for artificial intelligence in the law.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to check out CourtLink and Snapshot, feel free to book a free trial here.<\/a><\/p>\n

And read on for a tour of the product\u2019s capabilities \u2014 along with the litigation and business wins it will deliver.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Finding Your Data<\/strong><\/p>\n

The program opens with a user-friendly main screen that allows easy searches by litigant, judge, or numerous other filters.<\/p>\n

Users can set up alerts for any field as well, meaning they\u2019ll be emailed any new developments related to that item.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Searching by \u201cLitigation Area\u201d brings up the following results for \u201cPatent,\u201d for example.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Opening selected dockets will display a complaint summary created by Snapshot. Note: coverage for Snapshot Summaries include Fed Civil, Bankruptcy Chapter 11, Delaware Chancery and multiple California courts.<\/p>\n

This example summarizes a 21-page document. Notably, the original document was scanned, not with searchable text, so it was brought into the system through OCR.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Once you have followed a case, you can set up a track based on a number of factors. For example, you can set a track to receive an update only if there\u2019s been a change in proceedings, allowing you to filter out frivolous updates, like a new fax number for an attorney in the case.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

You can also search for terms within the body of a complaint summary, and Lexis\u2019 Snapshot AI will surface these results as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For example, here\u2019s a sample of what a Snapshot alert for \u201cOzempic\u201d would return.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Monitoring Chapter 11 Bankruptcies<\/strong><\/p>\n

Snapshot summaries in bankruptcy alerts, launched at the beginning of this year, have proven to be a popular addition to CourtLink.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Snapshot alerts follow the same general format as the example in the prior section, but the use cases are slightly different.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

The AI automatically extracts key details like the size of the case, the amount of debt, and the listed creditors.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Getting this information as soon as a case is filed allows lawyers who represent creditors to reach out to affected parties before they otherwise learn of the case.<\/p>\n

CourtLink users with Snapshot simply need to set up a Chapter 11 alert, and this information will be delivered to them as soon as a case is filed.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Following Litigants<\/strong><\/p>\n

While attracting new clients is great, law firms may get easier wins by increasing the work for the clients they already serve. CourtLink\u2019s litigant profile feature will help your firm do just that.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The feature allows you to find matters in federal and state courts with one search. To get started, you simply enter the name of a party, in the search field below.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Then, CourtLink will automatically generate a detailed profile, allowing you to quickly assess the legal needs of the company.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

From this view you can see the types of cases facing the company, which law firms are representing it in each area, and the location of its cases, among other information.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It will also present a detailed case list, and map all of the data into litigation trends, like in the screenshot below.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

The tool generates similar profiles for judges as well, and draws on data going back to the 1980s to provide a complete profile.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

The judicial information is particularly useful for guiding litigation strategy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

You can see, for example, how many times your opposing counsel has appeared before this judge, or how often this judge has handled cases in your practice area.\u00a0<\/p>\n
