Proof Technology and SmartAdvocate Announce Platform Integration for Service of Process Inside Legal Case Management Software

Published

on

Litigation teams can now initiate, track, and complete service of process without ever leaving the SmartAdvocate case file.

DENVER, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Proof Technology, Inc., the service of process and e-filing technology platform, and SmartAdvocate, the award-winning legal case management system, today announced a new integration that brings service of process in every jurisdiction directly into the SmartAdvocate platform.

“Serves now start, track, and close out right inside the SmartAdvocate case file. The word that keeps coming up in early feedback is ‘effortless,'” said Dima Kovalev, Chief Product Officer at Proof.

The integration allows the 20,000+ legal professionals who manage their cases on SmartAdvocate to serve legal documents on anyone, at any time, anywhere in the United States—directly from the case file they’re already working in. No second login, no re-typing case data, no copy-and-pasted status updates, no unnecessary downloads, and no distracting emails.

Until now, managing service of process alongside a case management system has meant working outside of it: rekeying names, addresses, and document details into a separate serve request, chasing process servers for status updates over phone and email, pasting tracking notes into the case file, and downloading affidavits and invoices from one platform only to re-upload them into another. Every handoff is an opportunity for an error, a delay, or a missed deadline. This integration eliminates that entire loop—service of process becomes another step in the SmartAdvocate workflow instead of a separate errand.

The integration was designed around how SmartAdvocate law firms actually work. Rather than an additional tool that demands new training, Proof built the experience to fit directly into existing SmartAdvocate workflows:

Users initiate a serve from the Documents tab of any case, pulling documents and contact details already in the matter.Proof’s Autofill™ technology reads the uploaded document, identifies the party to be served, and pre-fills the serve request details automatically—while real-time address validation and duplicate-serve checks catch errors before the serve goes out.As service progresses, every status update appears in the SmartAdvocate case file, giving paralegals, case managers, and attorneys a shared, real-time view of every serve.When the job is complete, signed affidavits and invoices sync automatically into the SmartAdvocate case folders the firm designates, and invoices can post directly to the matter as disbursements—so nothing slips past accounting.

“Our clients expect technology that removes complexity—not adds to it. By bringing service of process directly into SmartAdvocate, we’re continuing to deliver on our promise of a truly connected litigation platform. Firms can now manage the entire service process without leaving SmartAdvocate, improving efficiency, increasing visibility, and reducing the risk of costly delays. This integration reflects our broader vision of providing law firms with the technology they need to operate smarter, move faster, and deliver exceptional results for their clients,” said Allison Rampolla, SVP of Sales and Marketing at SmartAdvocate.

“A lot of SmartAdvocate firms already use Proof—they’ve just had to run the two side by side,” said Dima Kovalev, Chief Product Officer at Proof. “Now serves start, track, and close out right inside the case file. The early feedback is some of the strongest we’ve had for any launch. Firms tell us it’s changed how the whole intake-to-serve process feels—and the word that keeps coming up is ‘effortless.'”

The integration is available now to SmartAdvocate firms. Existing Proof customers can contact their Account Manager to get started; firms new to Proof can visit proofserve.com/integrations/smartadvocate to learn more.
