The importance and value of management and collection of information involved in a litigation, cannot be over emphasised for any litigant irrespective of whether the litigant is petitioner or respondent. The voluminous information and its systematic compilation pertain not only to the facts and evidence (documentary as well as depositions) of the case, but it also includes the compilation of legal position of various law points involved as per the case laws already decided and legal precedents up-to the date, and its rational application to the particular facts of the litigation in hand.  As a concept, the Litigation Management Attorney Services (LMA Services) are different from the legal services of the Arguing Counsel representing the litigant before the court room.

LMA Services work as a back bone and these may be termed as back stage services whereas they focus on discovery and systematic compilation of information, facts and law thereon, and briefing & appraisal thereof to the Arguing Counsel who is the face before the court room. LMA Services focussing on discovery and information management enhances the efficacy and efficiency in any litigation and frees up the Arguing Counsel before the Court such that he does not get bogged down with voluminous collection and organization of facts, evidences and law thereon.

The task of Arguing Counsel thus remains to listen and hear out all prepared case by Legal Management Attorney and apply his judicious mind as to how the Court would apprise the matter and advise any improvement required, if any, to the Legal Management Attorney to do the necessary modification & revision such that thereafter he argue the case before the court fully backed by effective and efficient compilation of facts and law provided by LMA Services.

Further LMA Services ensure consistency and continuity in the litigant’s defence strategy across the different cases and easy transition among different Arguing Counsels, as they can easily get-up to speed on the proceedings and hearing before the Court backed by such well organized LMA Services.

•  Discovery & Compilation of facts, information & evidences involved in litigation
•  Discovery & Compilation of law applicable to the facts of the case
•  Briefing & appraisal of the case to the Arguing Counsel
