Where cases slow down

Disorganized evidence drains billable hours and momentum

Litigation teams told us their biggest delays come from scattered discovery, unclear ownership, and last-minute scrambles. ParaLocker removes that friction.

What it really costs today:

  • Prep for hearings and critical filings takes 12–18 extra hours without a shared log.
  • Duplicate requests to experts add avoidable costs to client invoices.
  • Untracked commitments push key deliverables off course.
  • Client confidence drops when updates live in inboxes instead of a portal.
