Century Surety Company Selects CaseKnowledge For Use on a Specific Litigation Portfolio
13 March 2006 CaseKnowledge, Inc., a litigation management software company that helps insurance carriers, corporate law departments, and their law firms improve litigation outcomes and reduce their litigation costs, announced today it has been selected by Century Insurance Group for use on a specific litigation portfolio. CaseKnowledge will be used as the primary reporting and communication tool across the portfolio.
"The tools in the CaseKnowledge application address several key needs that are important to us,» said Vicki Roberts, Senior Litigation Counsel for Century Insurance Group. «CaseKnowledge allows us to receive information from our firms more efficiently, without additional work for the firms and without additional legal costs. Use of the application aggregates our litigation calendar, enables our staff to monitor key steps in the litigation process with greater ease, and gives us easier access to key litigation documents more quickly. These are important objectives of ours.»
«A primary factor in our decision to use CaseKnowledge is the ease and speed of the implementation process,» added Roberts. «The entire implementation process takes less than 2 weeks and requires only minimal time from our staff and our law firms. In our particular case, Century had recently installed an electronic invoicing application and we see CaseKnowledge as an ideal complementary tool that provides our litigation team with additional benefit.»
"We are very pleased that Century has selected CaseKnowledge to assist it in the management of this specific litigation portfolio," said Taylor Smith, Vice President of Client Solutions, CaseKnowledge, Inc. "Century has a national reputation for its innovative approach to litigation management and an overriding philosophy of working hand in hand with its selected defense firms. A primary component of CaseKnowledge is that it supports these collaborative relationships, while helping both parties control costs and achieve their management objectives. This is a key reason that CaseKnowledge is being purchased by clients and firms alike.»
