Core Automation — Filevine

Filevine Is Powerful. We Make It Work the Way Your Firm Actually Works.

Most law firms use less than 30% of Filevine's capability. We configure your phases, build your automation rules, and wire up your document triggers — so Filevine runs your cases, not the other way around.

Average Filevine capability firms actually use. The rest sits idle while staff work around the platform manually.

4–6 hrs

Saved per staff member per week once phase automation, document generation, and deadline tracking are live.

72 hrs

From kickoff to first automated phase triggers running in your live Filevine environment.

Most firms use Filevine like a glorified spreadsheet. They enter data, move stages manually, and chase documents through email. We configure Filevine to do the work — automatically triggering tasks, generating documents, and updating records the moment a case milestone is reached.

What We Configure

Four Areas We Build in Every Filevine Engagement

Every configuration is designed around your firm's actual case types, practice areas, and workflow — not a generic template.

🔀

Phase & Stage Configuration

Custom phase trees built for your specific practice areas. Each phase transition triggers the right tasks, assigns them to the right staff, and moves the case forward without manual intervention.

📄

Document Generation Triggers

Case reaches a key milestone → Filevine automatically generates the correct document populated with case data. Demand letters, retainer agreements, client updates — without anyone opening a template.

📅

Deadline Tracking & Alerts

Statute of limitations, filing deadlines, and follow-up windows calculated automatically from case data and added to calendars — with escalating alerts if a deadline is approaching and no action has been taken.

🔔

Custom Fields & Notification Rules

Custom fields configured for your case types. Notification rules that alert the right person at the right time — not everyone, every time — so your team responds to what matters.

How It Works

Specific Automations We Build

Every Automation Configured in a Standard Filevine Engagement

Built for your firm's practice areas, tested against your live data, and documented before handoff.

Phase-triggered task creation

Case advances to new phase → task list auto-created and assigned to the correct staff member with deadlines

Automated document generation

Key phase reached → Filevine generates the correct document template populated with case field data

Statute & deadline auto-calculation

Matter created → relevant deadlines calculated from incident/filing date and pushed to attorney calendar

Custom field configuration

Practice area-specific data fields built and organized so every case captures the exact information your attorneys need

Escalating deadline alerts

Deadline approaching with no action → automated alert escalation to supervisor before the window closes

Targeted notification rules

Specific staff notified only when relevant to their role — eliminating inbox noise and ensuring nothing critical is missed

Multi-practice area phase trees

Separate phase configurations per practice area — PI, family law, immigration, or any mix — each with their own automation rules

Staff assignment routing

New matters auto-assigned to the correct attorney or paralegal based on practice area, case type, or intake criteria
