Sending data to TimeMap

TimeMap® is a timeline graphing tool that allows you to import critical case facts from a CaseMap case so you can build a timeline to organize and chart them in a visual chronology.

Use TimeMap timelines during meetings to keep clients and staff up-to-date on case developments. Use TimeMap's presentation mode or enlarge and mount timelines for use in hearings and during trial so a jury or other large audience can view the facts illustrated into key points.
