ExhibitPrep vs LexisNexis CaseMap
Which tool is better for legal exhibit stamping?
See the side-by-side comparison.
The honest take
CaseMap is genuinely useful for litigators organizing facts and issues in a complex case, and that's a different job from stamping exhibits — it was never designed to touch the actual PDF. If you're using CaseMap to build your case theory, you'll still need something to stamp the documents once they're ready to become trial exhibits, and that's the specific gap ExhibitPrep fills.

Common Questions
Does CaseMap stamp exhibits?
No. CaseMap organizes facts, issues, and documents for case analysis — it has no exhibit numbering or stamping tool. When a document CaseMap tracks becomes a trial exhibit, it still needs to be stamped separately.
Are CaseMap and ExhibitPrep really alternatives to each other?
Not directly. CaseMap is for organizing case theory before trial; ExhibitPrep is for producing court-ready exhibits. Litigators working a complex case often use CaseMap during discovery and ExhibitPrep only when exhibits actually go into a binder or get filed.
What happens to exhibit numbering in CaseMap once documents are stamped?
CaseMap doesn't sync exhibit numbers automatically. You'd stamp the document in ExhibitPrep first, then manually update the reference in your CaseMap chronology or fact record.
