COURTROOM CONNECT EXPANDS ITS
OFFERINGS TO INCLUDE NEW SERVICE, "TRIAL CONNECT"
NOW LAW FIRMS CAN
ARRANGE FOR HIGH-SPEED INTERNET ACCESS, PRINTING, AND
REMOTE REAL-TIME TRANSCRIPT SERVICES FOR INDIVIDUAL
TRIALS AT COURTHOUSES ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES
June 5, 2003 Courtroom Connect, the leading
provider of high-speed Internet access, printing, and
remote real-time transcript services in courthouses
throughout the country, has made it even easier for
members of the courthouse community to get Internet
access during trial. With the introduction of their
revolutionary new service, Trial Connect, trial
teams now have access to these services in any courtroom
in the United Statesno matter where they litigate.
Law firms preparing for trial anywhere in the United
States can contact Courtroom Connect prior to their
trial date to set up high-speed Internet services for
any courtroom in the country. If Courtroom Connect services
are not permanently available in the trial venue, the
company will arrange with Court officials to install
a wireless network for the duration of the trial. With
permission from the Court, litigants will now have access
to the same high-speed Internet, printing, and remote
transcript services currently available in Courtroom
Connect-enabled courthouses in Delaware, California,
and New York. Law firms have been very enthusiastic
about the introduction of Trial Connect.
In a recent Eastern District of New York trial, the
litigation teams for the parties involved recognized
the value of accessing the Internet from within the
courtroom. The law firms in the litigation agreed that
contracting with Courtroom Connect was the ideal way
to meet their Internet service needs in trial, such
as sending and receiving email, conducting online legal
research, and printing out documents from within the
courtroom.
Darrell Cooper, Manager of Legal Support Services at
Clifford Chance commented, "Internet access in
the courtroom is an invaluable service. We were fortunate
to find a company like Courtroom Connect, capable of
providing the wireless connection on-demand and fully
supporting the services during the trial. We would happily
work with them again."
"We are seeing a growing demand for Internet services
in courthouses," explained Louis Goldberg, President
of Courtroom Connect. "However, many law firms
tell us they have no efficient way to install the cabling
and access points necessary for Wi-Fi access in Court.
Nor do they have the bandwidth to support their litigation
teams for the duration of trial. Our customers rely
on us to provide secure, reliable Internet services,
fully supported by Courtroom Connect, so they can focus
on the legal needs of their clients. And now, with the
introduction of Trial Connect, Courtroom Connect
is available to lawyers throughout the country, no matter
where they litigate."
