Docket Alarm overview

What is Docket Alarm?

Docket Alarm is a cloud-based docketing platform that enables law firms, attorneys, and legal professionals to manage lawsuits, track deadlines, and analyze case outcomes. It lets users build custom litigation analytics based on jurisdiction and generate reports on average time taken for trials, motion success rates, and motion pendency rates.

Key features of Docket Alarm include matter management, predictive analytics, rule-based calendaring, and real-time alerts. Legal professionals can use natural language technology and Boolean search capabilities to search for lawsuits and court records across federal, district, bankruptcy, supreme and appellate courts, research agencies, and The Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) or The Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (TTAB). Attorneys can receive alerts on court activities, bulk export case filings on a spreadsheet, and integrate their Electronic Case Files (ECF) account to get real-time updates about public documents. It lets users calculate case deadlines based on local court rules, send reminders to attorneys, and synchronize important details with team members’ Microsoft Outlook calendar.

Docket Alarm comes with an application programming interface (API), which helps law firms integrate the system with various third-party applications. Attorneys can search the database for case details using various filters as well as automate login processes using single-sign-on (SSO) capabilities.

Cons
“The only problem I had with the software at first was finding certain cases that were older, but there is a date filter that fixes that problem.”
SM

Sean M.

Marketing Coordinator

“The patent office's website can be difficult to navigate, and if you need to get updates for a dozen court cases, it could take an hour or more to check each one.”

Carlos G.

Litigation Paralegal

“More details in the initial query, so I don't have to get the full case just to find it's not about the person I was looking for. Mainly in Docket Alarm end point.”
