FOR SMALL LITIGATION FIRMS
Punch above your weight class.
The other side's strategy is often just arithmetic: more associates, more discovery, more delay, until your side runs out of hours. Discovery is 50 to 90 percent of litigation cost, and at your size it doesn't land on a review floor. It lands on partners' desks, at night.
And the hours you do spend reviewing get written down before they're collected. Under a flat fee, they're not even revenue. They're pure cost the firm absorbs. Every unbilled review hour is a partner's draw, leaking.

LITIGATER is review capacity, deposition prep, and docket discipline that doesn't bill by the hour, doesn't need an office, and doesn't leave for a bigger firm.
Absorb the document dump
When the production lands, all of it, at 5pm on Friday, the way it always lands, it goes into the sealed record, gets indexed, and gets read against your elements. What matters surfaces. What was meant to bury you doesn't.
Prepare like the big firm
Prep packets for every witness. An outline generator working from the elements you need. A live second chair in every deposition, and a ledger that cross-references everything after. The preparation gap between you and a forty-lawyer defense team stops being about headcount.
Keep the calendar unbreakable
Rules-based deadlines, redundant alerts, multiple recipients. When an associate leaves, their dates don't leave with them.
Fits the tools you already run
Word, Outlook, and Clio-class practice management sync. LITIGATER is not a second system of record your people have to remember to check. It slots into the one you have.
You don't need an edge over every firm in the state. You need one over the firm on the other side of this case.
