We are a three attorney general practice law firm
with a heavy business practice in Minneapolis. PracticeMaster
by Software Technology, Inc. was our choice of case management software
due to outstanding technical support, seamless integration with
our Tabs3 Billing Software and overall value.
PracticeMaster and Tabs3
truly share one database so we will never experience data integrity
issues due to importing and exporting data between programs or managing
multiple databases. An address change is updated in one place and
used in all correspondence eliminating those embarrassing wrong
address situations.
All client-related email, legal research, phone
logs and case notes are easily logged to client journals. We manage
internal workflow and keep track of delegated items through calendar
plans. Data is entered once and used for numerous documents. Reports
are easily generated on any information in the database. The time
required to create a full set of incorporation documents or estate
planning documents will be reduced by 75% or more. Fees and/or calendar
entries can be tied into the document assembly process so that these
tasks are not forgotten.
It is important to make sure your software consultant
understands the practice of law as well as the technology aspects.
We chose Legal Data Management & Technology to implement and
design our PracticeMaster system because their
team includes a bookkeeper and a paralegal with 25+ combined years
of law firm experience who truly understand the inner workings of
a law office. They are committed to designing case management systems
that adapt to the law firm instead of forcing the law firm to adapt
its practice to the technology. We are confident that we will recover
the cost of this project in increased productivity and recovered
billable time.
