Case Teams

Every Filing on Your Matters. Delivered to Your Team. Before Anyone Has to Ask.

Case teams run on information — who filed what, when, in which court, and what it means for the next deadline. PacerPro monitors your dockets, delivers filings to your inbox and DMS, and keeps the entire team informed across every active matter. You stay briefed. Your team stays aligned. Nothing gets missed.

THE REALITY

You Manage Multiple Matters Across Multiple Courts. Your Visibility Shouldn't Depend on Manual Effort.

An order comes down on one case while you're in a deposition on another. Opposing counsel files a motion overnight. A scheduling order drops with a 14-day response window — and the clock started before your team saw it.

The information is all in the court record. The problem is getting it to the right people, at the right time, in a format they can act on. Today, that depends on someone checking PACER, downloading the document, forwarding it to the team, and filing it in the DMS. When that cycle runs on manual effort, the gap between "it was filed" and "the team knows" is measured in hours — sometimes days.

For an associate managing six active matters, that gap is an operational risk. For a partner overseeing a forty-matter portfolio, it's invisible until something goes wrong.

FILING DELIVERY

New Filings Arrive in Your Inbox and DMS — Automatically

When a new docket entry appears on any of your tracked cases, PacerPro retrieves the full filing — the document and all attachments — and delivers it to your team. Notifications arrive within minutes of the court's entry. Combined PDFs include the brief and all exhibits in a single, correctly ordered document. No PACER login. No manual download. No waiting for someone to forward it.

Your paralegal or legal assistant configures which cases are tracked and who receives notifications. You receive the output: timely, complete, and ready to review.

What this means in practice:

You hear about a new filing from your notification, not from opposing counsel

The combined PDF is ready to read — no reassembling exhibits from separate downloads

Filings on all your matters are monitored continuously, including overnight and weekend activity

Federal and state courts are covered through a single platform

DMS INTEGRATION

Every Filing in the Right Matter Folder, With the Right Metadata, Without Manual Profiling

When your team needs a document, they look in the DMS. If the filing isn't there, or if it's in the wrong matter, someone has to hunt for it, re-download it from PACER, or ask the docketing team. That's friction that compounds across a busy practice.

PacerPro uploads every filing to the correct client-matter workspace in your DMS (iManage or NetDocuments) with metadata populated from the court record. Your team finds what they need where they expect it, without waiting for someone to manually profile and file each document.

What this means in practice:

When the partner asks "where's the order?", it's already in the matter folder

Metadata is consistent across every filing, every matter, every court

No documents missing from the case file because someone forgot to profile them

The DMS becomes a reliable, complete record — not a collection with gaps

DISTRIBUTION

The Right People on Your Case Team Get the Right Filings — Without You Forwarding Them

Every matter has a team: the lead associate, a junior associate, one or two paralegals, a legal assistant, sometimes co-counsel. Each needs to see certain filings. Today, keeping everyone informed means someone on the team manually forwards documents or trusts that everyone is checking the same source.

PacerPro distribution lists are configurable per matter. Each team member receives filing notifications based on their role. When someone joins or leaves the case team, the list updates immediately. Internal and external recipients, including co-counsel, are supported.

The associate managing the case team stops being the human routing layer. The paralegal stops forwarding documents. The partner receives filings without asking for them.

COURT SEARCH

Search Across Courts. Build Litigant Profiles. Navigate Complex Dockets.

Case teams don't just monitor their own matters. Associates research opposing counsel filing patterns. Partners prepare for pitches with litigant histories. Paralegals run conflicts checks across jurisdictions. All of this requires searching court records — and the court system doesn't make that easy.

Court Search provides a single interface to search across federal and state courts. Find cases by party, attorney, or docket number. Generate cross-jurisdictional litigant and attorney profiles. Navigate complex docket sheets with filters that surface the documents you need without scrolling through hundreds of entries.

What this means in practice:

Opposing counsel's recent filing activity across all jurisdictions — in one search

A complete litigant profile for a client pitch or conflicts check — without searching courts individually

Batch download up to 100 documents from a single docket

Auto-generated service lists and pleadings binder tables of contents

CONFIDENCE

The Best Measure of Coverage Is the Question You Stop Hearing

When PacerPro is running across your matters, the signal isn't a dramatic event. It's the absence of one. The partner stops asking "did we get this?" The associate walks into the status meeting already briefed. The paralegal's morning shifts from downloading and forwarding to reviewing and escalating.

PacerPro provides the audit trail to confirm it: what was delivered, to whom, when, and where it was filed in the DMS. But for most case teams, the evidence is simpler than a log. It's the day-to-day experience of a team that's always informed, always current, and never caught off guard by a filing they should have seen.

YOUR TEAM

Everyone on the Case Team Benefits.
Not Everyone Interacts the Same Way.

Everyone on the Case Team Benefits. Not Everyone Interacts the Same Way.

Partners

You receive filing notifications and access documents in the DMS. Your paralegal or legal assistant configures tracking, distribution lists, and DMS mappings. You evaluate PacerPro through the experience: is your team always informed? Are filings always accessible? Are you ever blindsided? The product works in the background. You see the results.

Associates

You receive notifications across all your active matters, review combined PDFs, and use the docket view to stay current on case activity. You may configure matters yourself or delegate to your paralegal. When you move to a new case team or matter, you bring your monitoring with you. You're the person who says "we should have PacerPro on this case" — and that recommendation drives how the product grows across the firm.

Legal Assistants

You configure the matters, manage distribution lists, verify DMS uploads, and handle the exceptions. PacerPro replaces the manual download-rename-profile-forward cycle that consumes your morning. Your role shifts from retrieval to verification — and the hours you reclaim go to the work that actually requires your expertise.
