A complex property settlement and spousal maintenance dispute involving thousands of documents. The level of the Husbands net worth was an issue in the claim. The Wife possessed thousands of relevant documents and needed to work closely with the accounting experts and legal teams to draw conclusions about the evidence but lived overseas in a different time-zone.

An injunction was sought by the Husband (who worked in the technology industry) challenging the Wife posting documents on a website ‘Delium’. The injunction was refused – the Judge concluded that all necessary steps had been taken in Delium to reduce the risk of unauthorised access or disclosure.

A dedicated Delium facility was accessed concurrently by both the legal and accounting teams who worked collaboratively to establish the net worth of the Husband. Comments, questions and annotations where applied to documents by the accounting and legal teams and these documents were flagged for the Wife to review and return comment on overnight, significantly reducing the communication lag often associated with overseas witnesses.

Stream-lined communication

Delium security was tested and found to be good.
