One of the unique benefits
and features of Monitor Suite is the utilization of the West Company
Authority File (WCA) to match and identify party names. The WCA is a
proprietary database that contains company profiles for over 2.5 million
public and private companies. With the WCA, you no longer need to guess
over how a company, like International Business Machines, might be
named in a case. Utilizing the alternate names contained in WCA,
litigation involving International Business Machines or IBM will be
identified and brought to your attention. In addition, WCA also tracks
and monitors Parent/Subsidiary information, so you can quickly find all
of the litigation involving a company and/or any of its subsidiaries.
You don't have to research a company's corporate holdings, Monitor Suite
automatically does it for you.
