Each case is assigned a dedicated project manager and a case manager with expert knowledge of legal proceedings to provide advice, guidance and support.
Our project manager will help guide the parties through all aspects of the setup and ongoing management of the electronic bundle, including the import and any updates.
The case manager will ensure the hearing room is set up to meet all requirements to the highest standards and that hearings proceed smoothly.

Your dedicated Opus 2 project manager will ensure your documents are organized and linked to meet your requirements and those of your case. If you are ready to manage all your cases using Opus 2, our enterprise license offers more autonomy and flexibility.
Set up private workspaces for each case team and the tribunal—the system is robust and scalable to handle any number of different parties so is suitable for large or small cases.
All analysis, notes, collaboration and private documents are stored within individual workspaces. This allows all parties to work on the same central version of the shared key documents but keeps parties’ own work product and materials private to their workspace and any permitted users within that workspace.
Build your case quickly by allowing instant, real-time and concurrent interaction between all members of your case team.
Build a centralized chronology and tag content — for example by issue, theme or witness — and create strategic hyperlinks between conflicting or complementary documents.
The system automatically sorts the tagged content into folders, making finding and organising information much simpler.
Quickly prepare cross-examination and other custom bundles. This will save time and avoid the hassle that is often associated with collating documents urgently, including updating numerous, expensive hard copy sets or USB drives with time-consuming inserts.
All materials are stored centrally. When updates to the bundle are required, changes are automatically reflected across all workspaces. This is all made easy by the Opus 2 managed service which takes the hassle out of managing shared bundles.
Follow proceedings through the Electronic Presentation of Evidence (EPE) and Realtime Transcription, making the hearing room a connected environment.
Even team members that are outside the hearing room can follow proceedings by logging into your private workspace remotely and watching the live transcript and evidence being presented as the trial unfolds.
Your work product is securely stored, accessible and searchable. Your legal team can access it from anywhere and at any time using an internet-enabled device with their security credentials.
At the end of each day, the audio from the hearing is uploaded and synchronised to the final transcript, giving users a complete record of the proceedings. If the case returns to appeal, all the previous case materials and work product is available immediately.
“Our collaboration with Opus 2 is a good example of our commitment to continuously upgrade the services available at Maxwell Chambers. In addition to offering preferred transcription services, Opus 2 also delivers its internationally acclaimed platform to the parties and arbitral panels engaged in hearings at Maxwell Chambers.
