Opus 2 Summer release: new levels of efficiency and security to award-winning solutions for legal disputes
Global News

Opus 2 logoToday, leading legal software and services provider Opus 2 announced its summer release, featuring key enhancements that bolster the utility, security, and speed of Opus 2 Cases and streamline the experience of parties using Opus 2 Hearings. 

The release underscores Opus 2’s commitment to purpose-driven innovation—with benefits that further simplify collaboration, lock down information, and reduce work effort for legal professionals engaged in litigation, arbitration, and other disputes. News of the release closely follows the announcement that Opus 2 Cases received the prestigious SIIA CODiE award for Best Legal Solution. 

“This is an exciting time at Opus 2 as our product and development teams are continually adding meaningful enhancements, other departments are growing and innovating, and we’re delivering critical solutions to the most successful legal teams across the globe,” said Greg Blackman, Opus 2 CEO. “As a fast-growing company, it’s important to stay grounded in what’s truly important—delivering client value with solutions that actually make them more efficient and effective.”

Key improvements build on this momentum, as the company introduces the newest version of its best-in-class, cloud-based legal case management and analysis software and multi-award-winning software and services for hearings. Here are the highlights: 

  • Stay organised by managing case-related work tasks - Built for anyone on a legal team who is contributing to a case or investigation—partners, associates, paralegals, litigation support professionals, and so on—a new task management capability keeps everyone’s work organised and the project on track. Users can create tasks for themselves or team members, monitor action items, evaluate progress in a dashboard, and more. Because task management is integrated into Opus 2 Cases, tasks can be created while working on case documents and linked to key information—centralising and simplifying all related work product and responsibilities in one place.  
  • Lock down confidential information and ensure conflicts complianceWhile Opus 2 Cases already makes use of a robust, granular permission infrastructure, security options available to clients are constantly being evaluated and implemented where they make sense. The summer release includes such an offering—seamless integration with Intapp Walls, a leading provider of legal confidentiality solutions. This “ethical walls” integration ensures that law firms can manage and control access across cases, so lawyers cannot gain access to cases when they’re conflicted out.  
  • Simplify access to trial resources, live transcripts, and other hearing resourcesWhen multiple parties are working to resolve a dispute that’s being conducted using Opus 2 Hearings—1,120 different international hearings relied on the solution last year—quick access to information is key to streamlining the user experience. In this release, a new case dashboard provides an easy-to-use, secure online hub where involved parties can access what is relevant to them. The real-time transcript, EPE (electronic presentation of evidence) with notes and highlights, live video conference, and other trial documents and resources are available for the proceedings in just a few clicks. Parties also can use the personalised dashboard to securely transfer files and connect with the Opus 2 Hearings team. 
  • Increase user efficiency with solution performance acceleratorsAs with security, Opus 2 continuously looks for ways to improve the performance of its technologies. The summer release includes multiple enhancements that boost behind-the-scenes processing, such as dramatically speeding up the time it takes to convert large volumes of documents into digital content through OCR.
