Matter Management

There may not be a department in any business where organization and management of documents is more important than in the legal department, and it’s not just paperwork related to cases. There’s more to the department than that, but the documents are just as critical. That’s why matter management software was developed in the first place. Unfortunately, because it has been focused on getting data into a system, it has often gone unused.

That’s what makes Onit’s matter management solution different. It’s built around the way your employees work, meaning our software gets used. We combine powerful collaboration and workflow capabilities to make a truly unique user experience on a platform that is highly configurable and adaptable to the unique needs of the most innovative legal departments.

By housing all the relevant data for legal matters in one location, our matter management solution acts like a system of record for all types of sensitive information and delivers clarity about your overall matter portfolio while providing real-time data and dashboards so you can monitor and track all your matters throughout their lifecycle. Legal team members gain immediate access to critical matter, financial, and performance metrics.

"The team enhanced spend management capabilities to enable the ops team to work smarter, depreciating matter management “systems” like spreadsheets and SharePoint lists in favor of one ELM system of record that actually allowed for creating common processes and automation."
