Application 2.6.3 Release Notes
Released: February 13, 2025
New Features and Enhancements
Search for Out-of-State Attorneys
Users can now search for attorneys outside of the state where a claim is set up. A new radial button allows for out-of-state searches, ensuring access to attorney statistics even when they are licensed in a different jurisdiction. Attorneys found using an external state bar directory will display their origin state on the Attorney UI.
This feature improves efficiency and ensures accurate attorney data within a single claim.
Manager Dashboard
A new dashboard provides managers visibility into all claims set up within their organization, removing the need for manual email invitations.
- Claims can now be viewed by managers without being explicitly invited.
- The dashboard includes columns for the claim creator and invited users.
- Filterable options allow for efficient claim tracking
Punitive Damages Removed in Verdict Calculations
Users can now choose whether to include or exclude punitive damages when viewing plaintiff verdicts in Analyzer. By default, punitive damages will be excluded. Winsorization has also been implemented to reduce the impact of extreme values on verdict averages. This statistical technique caps outliers at specific percentiles, improving the robustness of risk analyses.
Extreme values and outlier awards can distort the perception of plaintiff verdict amounts. Providing the option to include punitive damages ensures users can access a more accurate representation of risk. Winsorization provides a more stable and representative dataset for decision-making.
Washington, D.C. Added to State List
Washington, D.C. has been added as an option in the states list, with the correct state code (DC) and county designation (District of Columbia County). Previously, Washington, D.C. was missing from state selections, even though D.C. data was available. This update ensures full coverage for claims and attorney searches involving the District of Columbia.
Minor Bug Fixes and Performance Enhancements
As always, we’ve addressed minor bugs and made performance optimizations to keep the application running smoothly and efficiently.
