How long does it take to generate a discovery summary?

A

Is the summary format suitable for sharing with my litigation team?

A

Absolutely.

A

You can upload supplemental or amended discovery responses at any time for additional analysis. CaseMark can help identify how new responses compare to earlier discovery, highlighting any changes, supplementations, or new information that affects your case strategy. This is particularly valuable for tracking evolving positions or catching inconsistencies across multiple discovery rounds.
