Cloud-based court deadlines for Outlook, Google and Time Matters

I. About LawToolBox

LawToolBox provides cloud-based court deadline calculators for civil litigation in 50 states, and more! Finally, there is a quick “out of the box” solution to easily get your deadlines into Outlook, Google, LexisNexis TimeMatters and more.

The LawToolBox online centralized deadline management system is simple and easy to use, and we give you powerful benefits and tools:

1. Calculate deadlines online using our court rules built by attorneys

2. Calculators and deadlines can be customized

3. Email reminders to users assigned by case

4. Automate your own “cheat sheets” online

5. ONE-TIME per case fee – no out of pocket costs

6. Weekly deadline reports by firm, group, case, attorney, staff

7. Selectively synchronize to local calendars and/or tasks - users choose own sync preference

8. Amendments to Rules apply to deadlines in existing & new matters

9. See who edited what deadline and when

10. Share cases online with co-counsel and/or clients

When rules change or trials are continued our clients don’t need to wait for a software update or delete and re-import deadlines; instead LawToolBox deadlines are automatically updated real-time and online.

II. Free Trial - Compare Your Deadlines to Ours

Sign up online or schedule a 10 minute phone demo to get a free benchmark of your firm’s civil litigation deadlines for one of your matters (i.e., LawToolBox will help you and/or the paralegal or attorney responsible for deadlines enter a complaint, answer and/or trial date, for example, to generate deadlines for that matter to review and compare to internally generated deadlines).

At the end of the free trial start passing the one-time per case fee through to your clients or walk away and pay nothing!

III. Sync Deadlines to Your Calendaring Software

LawToolBox Sync for Outlook will automatically synchronize our rule-based court deadlines into the Outlook Calendar and/or Task List for each user on that matter; and our Sync for Time Matters will automatically synchronize our rule-based court deadlines into Time Matters as an Event and/or To Do (linked to the client and matter).

When users update deadlines (to reflect orders), rules are changed, or users close a matter, Time Matters or Outlook are updated without any user intervention.

Law firms that use other calendaring software that sync with Outlook (like PCLaw) can see their deadlines in both Outlook and the case management software that Outlook syncs with. Law firms using Amicus use their Amicus Short File name as their matter nickname in LawToolBox and all the deadlines will automatically appear in the Amicus File for each matter.


IV. Our Pricing is a NO BRAINER!!!!

LawToolBox charges a one-time “per law suit” fee that law firms pass through to their clients (which means law firms typically pay nothing for the deadline calculation, but may qualify for significant discounts on their malpractice premiums). To request a quote:

1 - Estimate number of ACTIVE lawsuits requiring docketing

2 - Estimate of number of ATTORNEY and SUPPORT users

3 - Primary calculators required (include state, court and type, e.g., CA superior civil)

4 – Where do you want to Sync Deadlines to? (Outlook, Time Matters, iCal, Google, Amicus, ?)

LawToolBox also offers flat rate pricing based on volume for firms that are not interested in passing our one-time per law suit fee through to their clients. Synchronization into Outlook or Time Matters is available for a nominal monthly fee based on the number of users, to whom the deadlines are synchronizing, ranging from $3 to $8 per user per month.
