Adding Team Members to Your Account

Platform Features

Collaboration is essential in any court or legal office. CaseFlow makes it easy to add team members and control what they can access and modify.

Step-by-Step: Inviting a User

  1. Log in to your CaseFlow account with admin credentials

  2. Navigate to Settings > Team Members (or Users, depending on your interface)

  3. Click "Invite User" or "Add Team Member"

  4. Enter the person's email address

  5. Select their role: Admin, Editor, or Viewer

  6. (Optional) Add a custom message to the invitation email

  7. Click "Send Invitation"

The recipient will receive an email with a unique invitation link. They'll click the link, create their password, and gain immediate access to your CaseFlow account based on the permissions you assigned.

Managing Active Invitations

From the Team Members page, you'll see a list of all pending invitations. If someone hasn't accepted their invitation after 7 days, you can resend it. Invitations expire after 30 days for security reasons—if someone tries to accept an expired invitation, they'll need you to send a fresh one.

Tracking User Activity

The Team Members dashboard shows:

  • Each user's name and email

  • Their role (Admin/Editor/Viewer)

  • Date they joined your account Last login date

  • Number of documents they've uploaded or edited (if applicable)

This visibility helps you identify inactive accounts that might be using up user slots unnecessarily.

Removing or Deactivating Users

If someone leaves your organization or no longer needs access:

1. Go to Settings > Team Members

2. Find their name in the list

3. Click "Deactivate" or "Remove"

4. Confirm the action

Deactivated users can no longer log in, but their past activity remains in the system for audit purposes. You can reactivate them later if needed.
