    Our Background

    If the animals look familiar it's because we're the same team that built Serengeti Tracker (Sold to Thomson Reuters in 2010), the world's largest and #1 rated legal e-billing and matter management system. Today, we're back at it solving more legal challenges.

    What We Do

    At Safari SOP, we transform the way companies receive and process high volumes of served documents (like 3rd-party subpoenas, account garnishments, levies, etc.), by providing the industry's best SDM platform and solutions. Learn More

COST RECOVERY

ABC Supply Company

How an innovative law department recovers subpoena response costs

To Kill a Mockingbird
If you’ve ever processed third-party subpoenas, then you may have run across “Pizza Party Money.” That’s what some companies call the dollar bills that issuers staple to request documents (an amount so small that accounting often doesn’t know what to do with it). Needless to say, the gesture doesn’t begin to cover the cost of collecting and delivering the files being requested—but it does help pay for lunch from time to time.

THE CHALLENGE
No practical way to get reimbursed


Prior to Safari, ABC Supply was responding to hundreds of subpoenas without getting reimbursed. Even a simple “Run, Fetch-n-Catch” required quite a bit of work. Once they reviewed the served documents and determined what was being requested, they had to track down responsive files either at corporate or one of their 800 branch locations. Next, they checked the content for redactions, and sometimes had to create an affidavit of authenticity or cover letter. That time and effort was rarely compensated—let alone the cost of sending the responsive documents on a flash drive by FedEx.
“I was spending hours responding to subpoenas that were so large—100 pages plus at times—that I had to write a cover letter explaining what’s inside, save them to a jump drive, and send them via FedEx. That’s when we decided something wasn’t right. We were offering all of this free of charge.”

How an innovative law department recovers subpoena response costs


THE SOLUTION

Today ABC Supply uses Safari to automate cost recovery. We spoke to Rebecca Logeman, a Paralegal at the company about her experience:

Question
How was setting up cost recovery?

“In less than an hour we were up and running with invoice templates for each of our four entities. Our templates include a custom logo, a line-item description, and a pre-configured fee.”
Our accounting department was surprised at first that payments would be coming into our department. Once we explained that we’d be recovering for our time, everyone was excited.

Question
What is billing like with Safari?

“We put a lot of work into responding to subpoenas, and Safari is the perfect tool for recovering our cost.”
Safari works really well. When it’s time to deliver a response, we select a template and it creates the invoice. We usually choose our standard $150 fee (to search up to three databases). If we think it’s going to be more complex, then we’ll negotiate and create a custom invoice. We can also offer a discount (for customers dealing with installers) or choose not to charge at all (for issuers like law enforcement that are going after the bad guys). Everything is simple because it’s pre-configured.
“If documents are not paid for and picked up within the delivery window, then Safari automatically shuts down the portal and alerts us.”

Question
How have issuers reacted?

“Firms understand the work involved in responding and are willing to compensate us for our time. They pay without blinking an eye.”
I think firms appreciate that our responses are quick and easy to access. Safari sends an email notification indicating: “Your documents are ready, click here to pay and download them."

Question
What do your colleagues think?

“We’ve had a very positive reaction in-house. All of the branches, departments, and accounting people that I work with think Safari is a great tool.”
The team sees all the blood, sweat, and tears that I put into my subpoena work. It’s nice to know that we’re being compensated now.
“With Safari’s cost recovery features, we’re collecting more in one month than we did in the past 16 years.”
