Case management built for how law firms actually work

Most small and mid-size firms still run on a mix of Excel, WhatsApp, and paper files. CaseDeck replaces all three with one place where every case, client, document, hearing, and payment lives — searchable, secure, and never lost when someone's out sick or a laptop dies.

From filing to case in seconds, not minutes

Upload a court document as a PDF and CaseDeck reads it, extracting the case title, type, court, case number, filing date, and client details automatically — pre-filling the new case form for you to review and confirm. What used to be five minutes of manual data entry per intake becomes a 30-second review.

Malayalam documents, translated to English in one upload

Upload a Malayalam legal document — text-based or a scan — and get a clean English translation in seconds, powered by Claude. It reads the page the way a person would, not just whatever text a PDF happens to expose, so scanned court filings translate as well as typed ones. Copy the text, or download it as a .txt file, a formatted PDF, or a Word document. Not tied to a case, so it's there whenever any document needs a fast, serviceable English read.

A complete case lifecycle, not just a filing cabinet

Every case carries its full story in one place: documents, supporting references (links, notes, files), hearing history with outcomes, the final verdict, and every payment against the agreed fee — with the outstanding balance calculated automatically. Nothing lives in five different places anymore.

Bank-grade login security, built in

Two-factor authentication (TOTP — works with Google Authenticator, Authy, 1Password, and any standard authenticator app) is available for every user, and admins can require it firm-wide. Combined with automatic sign-out after an hour of inactivity, your clients' case data stays protected even if a device is lost or left unlocked.

Every document encrypted, not just in transit

Every file you upload is encrypted (AES-256) before it's stored — so the contents are protected at rest, not only while moving between your browser and CaseDeck. Client contracts, evidence, filings: none of it ever sits on disk in plain, readable form.

Your data stays in India

Everything — uploaded documents and files, and the database behind every case, client, and hearing record — is hosted on infrastructure located in India. No client contract, evidence file, or case record ever leaves the country, which matters when the documents in question are legal records.

Proof your evidence hasn't been tampered with

Every document uploaded is fingerprinted with a SHA-256 hash the moment it lands — a cryptographic proof that the file is exactly what was uploaded, unchanged, whenever it's needed. Peace of mind for digital evidence that matters.

A complete, exportable audit trail

Every meaningful action — case updates, document uploads, hearing changes, payments, user administration, sign-ins — is logged automatically with who did it and when. Filter by user, action, or date range, and export to CSV or a formatted PDF for compliance reviews, partner reporting, or client requests.

Built for firms with more than one lawyer

Role-based access (Admin / Lawyer), per-case assignment, and a safety net that requires reassigning a departing lawyer's active cases before they can be removed — so no case is ever silently orphaned when staff change.

Never miss a hearing

A calendar view of every hearing across every case, a dashboard that surfaces what's coming up in the next 30 days, and an automatic email reminder to the assigned lawyer 24-48 hours before every hearing — no setup required. If a case has no assigned lawyer yet, every admin gets notified instead, so a hearing never falls through the cracks. Add outcomes and the next hearing date right after each appearance, so the record stays current without extra admin work.

A checklist for everything that isn't a hearing

Not every procedural step has a court date attached — filing a written statement, serving notice, chasing a document from the client. A lightweight task list on every case lets anyone add a to-do with an optional due date, check it off, or delete it, so nothing gets tracked in someone's head or a side notebook. Overdue items are flagged red, ones coming up in the next 3 days are flagged amber, and every add, complete, and reopen is on the audit trail.

Reminders that reach you even when the app is closed

Enable notifications on any device in one click, right from the bell menu, and hearing reminders arrive as a push notification — no app switching, no missed email in a crowded inbox. Works alongside the existing email reminders, not instead of them, and it's per device, so a lawyer can enable it on their phone without affecting anyone else.

Know who's overloaded before you assign the next case

An admin-only workload view breaks down every lawyer's open case count, outstanding balance across those cases, and all-time closed cases — sorted busiest-first — so assigning new intake is a quick glance, not a guess. A banner calls out any open case with no assigned lawyer at all.

A notification bell that knows your role

No digging through the dashboard to see what's urgent — the bell in the top nav surfaces it directly. Lawyers see hearings coming up on their own cases; admins additionally see firm-wide hearings, cases with an outstanding balance, and cases nobody's been assigned to yet. Everyone sees exactly what's relevant to their job, not a firehose of everything.

Find anything in seconds, from anywhere in the app

One search bar, always available in the top nav, across your entire firm — case titles and numbers, client names, document filenames, and reference files — not just whatever list you happen to be looking at. Stop clicking through cases one by one trying to remember which one has that attachment.

Get paid, and know exactly what's owed

Record every payment against a case's agreed fee, in whatever method the client used (cash, bank transfer, card, cheque, UPI). The outstanding balance is calculated for you — per case, and rolled up firm-wide on the dashboard.

A professional client experience

Share a beautifully formatted, firm-branded PDF case summary — with your firm's own seal and letterhead — directly to a client's inbox in one click, with an optional personal note. It's the kind of polish clients notice.

One click, the entire case file

Export a complete case — every document, every reference file, and a formatted case summary — as a single ZIP download. Hand a co-counsel, a client, or your own archive the whole picture in one file instead of downloading a dozen attachments one at a time.

Documents tagged, not just dumped in a pile

Tag every upload — Petition, Affidavit, Evidence, Order, Judgment, and more — so a case with forty documents stays scannable instead of turning into a wall of filenames. Tags show up right on the document list, and they're fully searchable: search "affidavit" and find every document tagged that way, even the ones your client named "scan0043.pdf."

Speaks your firm's language

Full interface in English and Malayalam today, with more languages straightforward to add — because your staff shouldn't have to think in a second language just to use their own case management system.

Works on every device, even offline-ish

Installable as a native-feeling app on phones, tablets, and desktops (PWA), with an offline app shell so it opens instantly even on a spotty connection.

Your firm's data, completely private

Every firm gets its own private workspace at its own web address. Your cases, clients, and documents are never visible to any one else — full stop.
