Litigation Support

Law firms and litigation teams face an overwhelming amount of evidence, financial records, communications, and other discovery materials in every major case. The connections buried in that data are vital to determining the outcome of the matter. With SentVi, attorneys can leverage link analysis and data visualization to find these connections in hours, not days or weeks.

Litigation Support and Legal Analytics

SentVi provides a software platform for attorneys, law firms, and litigation support teams to analyze, visualize, and share the information that can make or break a case.

Whether preparing for trial, building a class action, defending against one, or managing millions of discovery documents, SentVi transforms raw data into interactive link charts, timelines, and network diagrams that reveal what spreadsheets and document stacks cannot: who is connected to whom, who knew what, and when.

From tracing money trails across dozens of entities to reconstructing the sequence of corporate decisions that led to harm, SentVi enables legal teams to see the full picture and present it clearly.

Proven Results in High-Stakes Litigation

$250 Million State Farm Settlement

SentVi’s data analytics capabilities played a direct role in one of the most significant class action outcomes in recent history.

In a case alleging that State Farm orchestrated a scheme to funnel campaign money to an Illinois Supreme Court justice who later voted to overturn a $1 billion verdict against the insurer, attorneys used SentVi to trace hidden financial relationships and expose the alleged influence network behind the contributions.

The result: a $250 million settlement on behalf of over 4 million policyholders.

The case demonstrated exactly what SentVi does for litigation teams: it takes complex financial and relational data and turns it into a clear, visual story that attorneys can use to build their case and present it to a jury.

For Plaintiff and Class Action Firms

When building a case on behalf of a class, the challenge is proving that the harm was systemic, not isolated. SentVi helps plaintiff teams:

  • Map corporate decision chains to show who knew what and when
  • Trace financial flows across entities to follow the money
    Connect thousands of class members to a common harm through shared data points
  • Build timeline visualizations that establish a pattern of behavior, not a single event
  • Reduce millions of discovery documents to visual patterns a jury can understand
  • Create network diagrams that make complex cases simple to present

For Defense and Corporate Litigation Teams

When defending against a class action or complex litigation, the challenge is identifying where the opposing side’s case has gaps. SentVi helps defense teams:

  • Challenge the plaintiff’s network maps by exposing assumptions and missing connections
  • Demonstrate that class members are not similarly situated
  • Build counter-theories of the matter that tell a different story with the same data
  • Analyze discovery data at scale to find inconsistencies in the opposing case
  • Isolate which relationships are substantiated and which are circumstantial
  • Present alternative explanations with the same analytical rigor

Advanced Analytical Capabilities for Legal Teams

Visual Link Analysis

2D and 3D network link charts make it easy to build and explore relationship maps, with full control over layout and appearance. With data visualization, attorneys can see how people, organizations, transactions, and events connect at a glance. A task that could take months with spreadsheets alone.

Timeline Reconstruction

SentVi’s temporal tools let legal teams reconstruct and challenge event sequences. A time range interface hides or reveals data based on date, showing how networks and relationships evolved over the life of a case.

Social Network Analysis

Automated network metrics rank and group entities by a variety of criteria. Quickly identify the most central or highly connected players in any network, whether mapping a conspiracy or isolating a client from one.

Geospatial Mapping

Visualize and analyze location-based data with integrated online maps and Google Earth. Plot entities, events, and transactions geographically to reveal spatial relationships invisible in traditional document review.

Jury-Ready Presentations

Export link charts, timelines, and network diagrams in a variety of formats for use in courtroom presentations, depositions, and settlement negotiations. SentVi’s visualizations translate complex data into clear evidence a jury can follow.

Discovery

Import and analyze large volumes of structured data. SentVi’s knowledge base stores detailed information about people, places, organizations, communications, and documents in one searchable, connected system.
