Who's Who in the Case
| Use this program to keep track of People, Companies, or involved entities in a Matter. It allows you to keep track of the Name, Address, Phone Numbers, Relationship to the case (opposing Attorney, Witness, Expert Witness, Adverse Parties, Ex-husband's Girlfriend, etc.) and Comments or Notes. It also allows for Custom fields based on Relationships that are labeled in the Relationship view. The module links directly to the Client-Matter database. |
