Case Study: Aurora Public Defender’s Office improves workload tracking and caseload management with LegalServer

Managing Public Defender Workloads Just Got Easier

The Aurora Public Defender’s Office needed a way to manage its staff workload and track time spent on cases, as it lacked a case management system and was handling everything manually. This manual process consumed too much time and provided no insight into caseload distribution. The office turned to LegalServer for its case management solution.

By implementing LegalServer, the office gained robust time tracking and reporting features. This allowed staff to log time against specific activities and enabled supervisors to run reports analyzing caseloads per attorney and time allocation across case types. LegalServer provided the data needed to compare local workloads against Colorado state standards, helping the office determine if new positions were required to ensure effective legal counsel.
