For a community to be safe, the individuals within it must also be safe—including being safe from unjust penalties and excessive punishment. As a public defender, you ensure this safety by exonerating the innocent, protecting the convicted from excessive punishment, and guaranteeing everyone’s constitutional rights.
Unfortunately, protecting the lives of others often takes its toll on your own. You never have enough time in the day to give each of your cases the attention they deserve, making you skip lunches, work weekends, and spend long nights to try to accomplish everything.
At New Dawn, we recognize the incredible challenges inherent with your role and have created a solution to assist you.
For example, JustWare helps you:
Organize your information: JustWare organizes all of a case’s related information—including charges, pleas, case notes, witnesses, involved agencies, contact information, documents, court dates, and more—in one place. JustWare enables you to easily store and quickly retrieve any case- or name-related data and documents.
Organize your time: JustWare provides calendars to help you organize your schedule, synchronizes your calendar with your Microsoft Outlook calendar, helps you track your time, and reminds you of all important events and deadlines.
Report on key information: JustWare’s context-sensitive reporting functionality make it one of the most flexible and powerful solutions on the market. JustWare seamlessly merges reporting and case management software for your end users.
Work more efficiently: JustWare helps you work more efficiently by automating your tasks, creating and printing your documents, calculating your statistics, and otherwise speeding up your regular tasks.
Share and receive information: Data sharing is a critical aspect of every public defender’s office, whether large or small. JustWare enables you to share data securely internally. We also offer auxiliary programs that assist your data-sharing even more.
Find documents & information: JustWare provides powerful searching and barcoding capabilities to enable you to find any file in your office, whether stored in JustWare or as a physical item.
Keep information secure: Recognizing the sensitive nature of your office, JustWare provides extensive security tools to keep your data secure, including role-based or user-based security, as well as data partitioning and auditing.
Meet your specific needs: Not all defender agencies operate the same way. You may handle criminal cases, civil cases, juvenile cases, specialty types, or a combination of those. JustWare is extremely flexible and can be configured to handle any of your needs. You can rename system fields, define screens and data views for users and groups, and embed external programs and websites.
