ABC Legal EvidenceChain Integration

ABC Legal EvidenceChain Integration

Overview

EvidenceChain is an integration with our partner ABC Legal designed to improve proof of service documentation for collections cases.

When a matter is served by ABC Legal, Docketly now automatically attaches an EvidenceChain PDF directly to the hearing.

This document is:

  • Court-ready

  • Consolidated into a single packet

  • Accessible directly from the hearing page

  • Available before you walk into court

  3. To obtain the EvidenceChain document along with all your other attachments simply download your Daily Docket and the EvidenceChain document will be included in your hearing attachments.

If you do not see the attachment:

  • Check the Details section of the hearing page

  • Locate the EvidenceChain link

  • Click to download the most up-to-date version of the document (if available)

Some hearings will never have EvidenceChain due to that client not making use of ABC Legal for Service of Process. In these occasions please make use of the standard provided documents to prove up service.
