FAQ

These are the answers to some of the most common questions asked about our software and services at Lightning Law.

Can WE use Lightning Law for ARRAIGNMENTS, Hearings, Arbitrations, and Trials?

Yes, we can connect to a Court and deliver virtual hearings which includes documents in the hearing.

Does a subscription include digital signatures for incarcerated users?

Yes. Incarcerated individuals can sign documents directly on their tablet devices.

Do you provide attorney verification?

No, corrections facilities and Courts must follow their own procedures to ensure that the attorney is actually the attorney. But we do allow you to approve or reject attorneys after you have vetted them.

Can my paralegal set meetings and share documents for me?

Yes, every attorney license comes with a free paralegal or administrative assistant license. That way you do not need to be the one sharing evidence or setting up meetings.

Can anyone else see which documents I have uploaded?

Not until you share them. And then you can remove access to them. You control who sees your evidence and for how long.

If we purchase licenses for a corrections facility, can we reuse the license when a user is released or transferred

Yes!
