- Production tracking against the response deadline
- Nonresponse escalation to the responsible attorney

The 14 subpoenas you would have lost track of
A complex commercial litigation matter requires subpoenas to 14 recipients spanning 3 states. In the old workflow, your paralegal manages the queue with a spreadsheet and emails the process server one at a time. The Subpoena Manager drafts the 14 subpoenas using the right form per jurisdiction, hands them to the process server network with service requests, tracks the affidavits as they return, and watches the production deadlines. The 3 recipients who haven't produced by deadline get surfaced for the associate to follow up. Nothing falls through.

Function
Safety posture
Every subpoena is reviewed by the responsible attorney before service. The agent drafts and queues; the attorney signs and authorizes service. Productions that arrive are filed to the matter; the agent doesn't review or rely on the substantive content for further action without attorney involvement.
Frequently Asked Questions
The notice requirement is built into the workflow per jurisdiction. The agent drafts the notice along with the subpoena and routes both to the attorney for review. Service to opposing counsel and the third-party recipient happens in the right order with the audit trail attached.
