Thompson Coburn launches legal tech innovation ProjectCRAFT™
June 25, 2019
Thompson Coburn is pleased to announce the launch of ProjectCRAFT™, a collaborative web platform that allows companies to easily handle responses to legal citations and garnishments through a dedicated team of outside counsel while predictably managing their resources.
“CRAFT” stands for “Citation, Review, Analysis, File Submission, and Tracking.” ProjectCRAFT™ provides a streamlined online portal for companies to route routine legal filings for review, assessment and electronic filing by Thompson Coburn attorneys. Clients can track and review pending actions with a suite of alerts, data analytics and tools — available 24/7 from any type of device.
Companies in many industries, including banks and financial institutions, receive numerous citations, garnishments, subpoenas and third-party pleadings each month. These legal matters can crop up whenever a customer, account holder or employee is sued, fined or becomes involved in a legal action.
Through ProjectCRAFT™, Thompson Coburn provides a secure, encrypted site where clients can upload citations and garnishments, fill in a few simple fields, and hit submit. Thompson Coburn’s ProjectCRAFT™ team triages the submissions and seamlessly executes the required legal response — including electronic filing or other appropriate measures.
Features of ProjectCRAFT™:
- Access to documents, reports, and status 24/7
- Daily digest subscriptions with links to documents added to the system the prior day
- Customized citation tracker
- Robust search capability
- Real-time analytics via a dashboard
- Reports and search results can be exported to Excel for additional analysis
- Q&A module that allows clients to communicate with Thompson Coburn attorneys entirely within the site — no email traffic needed
