# How Can I Track Which Attorney Is Handling the Most Active Cases?

You track caseload by connecting every active case to the assigned attorney, letting a dashboard rank workload automatically rather than guessing from impression. On **Jestor**, this runs through dashboard indicators aggregating cases by attorney.

Deciding who's overloaded with cases based on impression, rather than actual data, risks misjudging where real workload pressure genuinely exists.

## What impression-based caseload tracking costs

- Decisions about workload made on impression rather than real case data
- Risk of misjudging where genuine workload pressure actually exists
- No objective basis for deciding where to add support or redistribute work
- Difficulty balancing caseload fairly across the whole firm

## How tracking attorney caseload works

- Active cases connect directly to each attorney's **record**
- A dashboard ranks attorneys by current active caseload
- This ranking updates continuously as cases open and close
- Staffing or support decisions can be based on this real, current data

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Objective data removes the guesswork from judging workload
- Real-time ranking reflects current reality, not outdated impressions
- This supports fairer, more informed decisions about support and staffing
- This scales from a couple of attorneys to a large, multi-attorney firm
