From Intake to Production: What “Managed Discovery” Looks Like in Family Law
Discovery works best when it’s managed, not rushed.
In family law, a single case can involve hundreds of documents, multiple rounds of requests, and ongoing supplementation. Without a clear process, things fall through the cracks.
What Is Managed Discovery?
Managed discovery is a start-to-finish approach that includes:
Discovery intake and request review
Client document guidance and collection
Drafting clear, compliant responses
Organized document production
Deadline and supplementation tracking
This approach removes guesswork and ensures consistency across cases.
Why Attorneys Benefit from a Managed System
A structured discovery process:
Saves hours of attorney time
Reduces last-minute emergencies
Improves client experience
Strengthens case presentation
Instead of reacting to discovery demands, attorneys stay in control of the case narrative.
Discovery Should Support Strategy—Not Distract From It
When discovery is handled efficiently, attorneys can focus on:
Case strategy
Client advocacy
Court preparation
That’s where real value is created.
