The moment
A business that's just been sued has a deadline to answer, and it may not have a litigator it trusts. The complaint is public the day it's filed, with the plaintiff, the court and the claims.
The Summons tracks new filings and keeps the ones where a business is the defendant, so a defense firm sees the case before the answer's due.
Who it's for
- Commercial litigation firms
- Business defense firms
- Employment defense counsel
- Insurance defense panels
What you get
- Businesses named as defendants in your courts
- The plaintiff, the court, the claims and the filing date
- When the answer is due under the court's rules
- The defendant's other open cases, where there are any
The outcome
Your firm reaches the general counsel or the founder inside the answer window, with a read on the claims already in hand. Repeat defendants show up as candidates for a standing relationship.
Questions buyers ask
- How is this different from The Docket?
- The Docket covers new cases broadly, for funders, experts and property managers. The Summons keeps only the cases where a business is the defendant, for defense firms.
- Can I filter by claim type?
- Yes. You'll see contract, employment, intellectual property, commercial and more.
- Which courts?
- Tell us your courts and a Signal Sample shows this week's filings against businesses there.
