Powerful Case Prep
Created a comprehensive, searchable testimony database enabling more thorough strategy development and case analysis.
Courtroom Advantage
Enabled immediate identification and presentation of inconsistent testimony during cross-examination.
"We were in trial this week and had a real-world opportunity to utilize Rev in a high-stress environment. I was able to use Rev to successfully cross-examine witnesses by leveraging the transcripts, video synced with transcripts, and various other features to effectively impeach testimony. While it's possible to do this with other technologies, it's much harder and requires a gazillion more hours of prep. Rev is a very cool product for trial lawyers."

The Rev Impact

Rev provided Adam with a definitive source of truth he could confidently access and manage in real-time during trial. Because he had thoroughly reviewed the material and knew with certainty it was properly captured in his Rev account, he could immediately bring forward critical evidence to impeach witnesses when they contradicted previous statements.

This real-time capability transformed Swingle Levin's approach from merely preparatory to dynamically responsive.
