TAS – Litigation matter types

We have recently added a new feature called Table relations to TAS Litigation matter types.

Card table relations have been implemented for the following TAS Litigation matter types which will enable all related cards to be linked together:

  • Debt Recovery – Magistrates Court
  • Magistrates Court Litigation
  • Supreme Court Litigation

Table relations provide smart association of related parties and/or relevant data through both cards and tables to ensure matter types are easier to complete.

Some common Litigation table relations include Defendant and Defendant’s Solicitor:

This is particularly helpful in Litigation matter types when there is more than one Other side and Other side’s Solicitor, it is now easy to identify which Solicitor belongs with which Other side.

Some of these card tables are not Standard tables but are available in Other possible tables and when added to the matter through edit table types will link with the relevant related card or table.

If required, you can also edit table relations per matter by right clicking on the Matter Details and selecting Edit Table relations, you will then be presented with a list of relations to un-associate – simply untick any tables you wish to unlink.

Details are also available on the Help Centre.

What is BundlePro?

BundlePro is a new innovation to help law firms meet the new requirements associated with the electronic submission of CourtBooks. It integrates with LEAP to allow law firms to create professional, presentable, searchable and cost effective electronic PDF bundles for the courts in minutes.

BundlePro automatically converts large volumes of documents into a single PDF, complete with an auto-generated paginated index, bookmarks, hyperlinks and a cover page. The contents of the electronic binder is then run through a forensic OCR, making the text fully searchable.  Simple and user friendly, BundlePro will save you time and money. Once a bundle has been created, an automatic disbursement can be generated and saved back to your client’s ledger in LEAP, ensuring you recover any expenses incurred.
