When it comes to litigation support, the laws may be federal, but the jurisdictional requirements are anything but uniform. Across the country, state-specific rules and procedures shape how records are accessed, produced, and handled. Overlooking even a small detail can slow down a case or put compliance at risk.
That’s why having a national provider isn’t enough. What matters is having a provider with a deep understanding of jurisdictional nuances and a structure that’s built to meet them.
Every State Has Its Own Rules
For records retrieval, states impose their own layers of regulation. In Texas, records often require DWQs and notarized affidavits. California may call for onsite copying to comply with privacy rules. In Florida, NPNP protocols and strict subpoena handling requirements are common. These details aren’t just footnotes; they're critical steps in the process, and they can vary widely from state to state.
Local Knowledge. National Coverage.
MCS is built for both national scale and local requirements. Through our regional operations centers and in-market teams, we deliver support to comply with all jurisdictional requirements.
With teams based in major litigation markets, our teams are equipped to navigate each step with accuracy and confidence. This structure gives our clients the advantage of scale, without sacrificing attention to local details.
Why It Matters
In records retrieval, details matter. When a request is delayed because a state-specific notarization was missed or an onsite copy requirement wasn’t met, it’s more than an inconvenience, it potentially puts your case outcome at risk.
Partnering with a provider that understands these regional requirements helps avoid delays, reduces back-and-forth with facilities, and improves outcomes. MCS is built to manage these complexities, so clients can focus on what they do best – manage claims and cases.
Records retrieval is only part of the job. What matters just as much is getting each step right, every time, in every jurisdiction. Whether you’re managing multi-state litigation or responding to a time-sensitive subpoena, having a partner who understands the rules and is equipped to meet them can make all the difference. MCS brings that experience to every request, in every location.
