Legal Business
Used by many of the UK's top law firms, DCS’s solutions and services help legal organisations to efficiently manage case workload and its associated raft of documents.
Most legal organisations have teams of paralegals involved in research, compilation of bibles and other documentation. This all needs to be performed with strict audit trails and ease of access to minimise legal time and costs. Teams also need to share information, sometimes between different office locations.
Where long protracted cases are being handled then the move is now towards working on digital copies of documents as it reduces copying costs, speeds up discovery and makes cross referencing and bible production much easier.
DCS’s solutions help to reduce manual administrative tasks by replacing paper-based systems with an electronic version. Staff are able to view, update and track cases electronically, promoting transparency and information sharing, while improving productivity, efficiency and accuracy of information.
Legal business cases require vast quantities of information to be copied. Bates labeling scanning can save an organisation a large amount of time and money. For documents that may be required for US litigation, the traditional copy process involves copying the originals, Bates labeling the copy set and then recopying the copy set with Bates numbers.
DCS can offer a Bates numbering scanning service where the scanning process involves scanning the originals once, digitally numbering the images according to the Bates numbering system. The scanned documents may then either be dispersed electronically or reprinted complete with unique Bates numbers.
