Why Export Case Facts?

Exporting case facts allows you to:

  • Use your work outside of CaseScribe

  • Write briefs using organized case information

  • Send medical chronologies to external experts

  • Analyze data in spreadsheet applications

Exporting Information from Case Facts to Other Tools

  1. Accessing Client Information

    • Navigate to the facts screen to view facts related to the client.

  2. Export Options

    • Click on the export button to begin the export process.

    • Choose between exporting just Case Facts and Case Facts plus files.

    • Specify how you want the page numbers indexed (per document or combined).

  3. Export Formats

    • Select the export format: CSV, Word, or case map portable format.

    • Export the information to review it in the chosen format.

  4. Exporting Specific Information

    • Filter the facts based on specific document types or categories.

    • Export only the filtered information, respecting the selected filters.

  5. Document Formats

    • Word file: Facts presented in a table format.

    • Excel file (CSV): Contains all data elements in a tabular format.

    • Case map format: For users of LexisNexis case map, a file format is provided for import along with a combined PDF document.

  6. Conclusion

    • The export feature allows for tailored extraction of information from CaseScribe for use in other tools.

    • Users can choose the format that best suits their needs for further analysis or integration with other software tools.

Choosing between Excel and Word format

  • Generally, Word is the most readable format. By default the entire case fact is shown in each cell.

  • Excel (CSV) is great if you want to do your own filtering and sorting using the built-in features of Excel. We recommend this for advanced users or if you want an archive format that can be imported to other software.
