NYCAL — New York City Asbestos Litigation
The definitive asbestos litigation management system for New York courts. Over 25 years of continuous operation, 3,000+ active cases, and a zero-breach track record that sets the standard for litigation portal security.
The Challenge
New York City's asbestos litigation docket is one of the largest and most complex in the nation. Managing thousands of cases simultaneously — each with its own set of plaintiffs, defendants, insurers, and legal teams — requires infrastructure that most platforms simply cannot handle. The specific challenges included:
- Asbestos litigation spanning decades with continuously evolving case loads and party structures.
- 3,000+ active cases requiring simultaneous management with distinct party configurations per case.
- 12 different user roles with granular permission requirements varying by case type and proceeding stage.
- Strict New York court requirements for document management and access audit trails.
- Legacy data migration from previous systems while maintaining chain-of-custody documentation.
Our Solution
Scalable Multi-Case Architecture
A platform designed to manage thousands of concurrent cases, each with its own party structure, document repository, and access controls.
12-Role RBAC System
From Presiding Judges to Document Reviewers, each role has precisely calibrated permissions. Roles can be customized per case when proceedings require it.
Database-Level Party Isolation
The Iron Curtain model applied at scale — every case maintains complete separation between plaintiff and defendant data across all 3,000+ matters.
25+ Years of Continuous Operation
The platform has been maintained, upgraded, and expanded across multiple technology generations while maintaining zero downtime during court hours.
25+ Years of Impact
NYCAL represents our longest-running engagement and the most compelling proof of our platform's durability. The system has operated continuously for over 25 years, surviving multiple technology transitions, server migrations, and security standard evolutions.
During that time, the platform has maintained a zero-breach record across all 3,000+ active cases. No unauthorized cross-party access. No data leaks. No compromised credentials. This track record reflects our fundamental design philosophy: security is not a feature to be added — it's the architecture itself.
The platform continues to evolve. Recent enhancements include modernized user interfaces, improved search capabilities, and integration with court e-filing systems — all deployed without disrupting active proceedings.
