The LexisNexis CounselLink Legal Spend Management Application
The CounselLink Legal Spend Management Application provides corporate customers and attorneys with the ability to implement pricing alternatives with outside counsel firms. The CounselLink Legal Spend Management Application securely gathers information (SSL encrypted) from law firms registered with CounselLink, including fees offered for certain services and information about the firms and their individual attorneys. This information is available to LexisNexis CounselLink corporate customers. These business customers select registered law firms or their attorneys for legal representation in certain matters.

The corporate customers provide identifying information and must enter some specific information regarding legal matters they wish to assign to registered attorneys. This information, which may be limited to registered attorneys in particular geographic locations or having specific practice experience, is available to the attorneys also.

Law firms can enter law firm information such as the firm name, address, phone/fax number, Web URL, employee information, pricing offers to perform services and billing information. Firm resumes and other marketing information may be included, as ethically permitted by the regulating bar or court in each state.

Both corporate customers and law firms can access fee structures, information about particular legal matters and electronic invoices, and reports.

Aggregate data gathered in the CounselLink application that contains no personally identifiable information may be shared with you and other responsible third parties.

In the event Examen is legally compelled by court order or other legal process to disclose confidential or privileged Information, we will notify the affected parties, using the notification information they have provided to us, to allow them an opportunity to obtain protective orders or other relief to which they may be entitled.

The LegalPrecision® E-Billing Application
This secure (SSL encrypted) channel permits law firms to deliver secure legal bills to their business clients, or to submit and update law firm information such as the firm name, address, phone/fax number, Web URL, and employee information. When a change is made to any of the items listed, Examen will automatically append a note to our database that includes the identity of the person who changed the information, what was changed and the date. Access to the law firm's account is strictly controlled through passwords and User ID's. Law firms can also use the LegalPrecision to receive Examen reports electronically.

The LegalPrecision applications allows law firms to securely check the processing status of submitted legal bills, open and close matters warehoused in their client's database, and view online reports from a data warehouse of information compiled from their billings.

Corporate customers can securely review, adjust and approve legal bills online, view and generate reports, check the processing status of legal bills, open and close matters, attach files to legal matters and access information about their law firms.

In the event Examen is legally compelled by court order or other legal process to disclose confidential or privileged Information, we will notify the affected parties, using the notification information they have provided to us, to allow them an opportunity to obtain protective orders or other relief to which they may be entitled.
