A System That Works The Way That You Do

The CynOps Matter Management System by TyMetrix is a workflow and process model that mirrors the way lawyers actually practice.

Our system does more than just track information, it streamlines the process of setting up files, establishing deadlines, and keeping projects on track. It does this by automatically requesting information when needed, presenting easy data input mechanisms that take advantage of what is already known about the matter, providing assessment and practice tools and other aggregated information when needed and sending out electronic reminders if the process begins to get off-track.

A system That Helps You Get The Job Done

Selection of a specific matter-type upon opening a new matter:

  • Determines the data entry fields and nomenclature, issue selections, document folder hierarchy and contact personnel features.
  • Establishes the workflow that should be followed by the participants in the management of the matter.

The workflow charts the course for the matter and can include such things as collaborative planning and budgeting, case assignment and acceptance, progress and significant event reporting, document creation and retention, contact and event management, and even matter/file closing procedures. The workflow determines when the "to do" lists for specific participants should be changed, when email reminders of overdue actions should be sent, when reporting, budgeting or planning forms should be displayed for input, and when participants should be alerted that their actions are awaiting the completion of tasks by others.

In short, the workflow guides the participants in the input of key financial and substantive communications from the opening of a matter until its completion and closing of the record, or until a change in the character of the matter-type selection has the effect of altering the workflow.

A System That Makes Teamwork Really Possible

The matter management system is part of both a larger collaboration system for securely and selectively sharing information among in-house and outside firm personnel, and the TyMetrix e-invoicing system. Although the collaborative matter management system can be used without the e-invoicing system, the financial case-related data that is available to the user by virtue of the fact that these systems are integrated becomes a tool for managing litigation.

Our integrated web-based approach to managing matter and financial information represents the most advanced, most complete, most flexible and easiest to use collaborative matter management system available anywhere.
