Manage Your Documents in the Context of Matters, Cases, Clients, Courts, Locations, and Legal Procedures!

Most legal practices spend a significant portion of each day simply manipulating various types of documentation items. Massive amounts of time are wasted to find, organize, and distribute documentation. This process is repeated over and over again every day and all this effort occurs just to get to the point where you can begin to do any "real work".

Even those legal practices that have gone to the effort to implement a document management system often find that managing documents does not solve the information problem in law firms today. Documents, evidence, notes, briefs, reports, etc. must be managed in the context of the client, court, case, and lawyer!

Documentation can take the form of tradition paper but today it is more likely found in the form of Electronically Sourced Information or ESI. It is estimated that in today’s world of litigation, approximately 95% of case related evidence is in electronic formats:

• paper documents scanned into electronic formats
• desktop documents - PDF, Word, Excel, WordPerfect, etc
• emails
• text messages
• voicemails
• digitized photographs
• video recordings

These common place case-related information assets must now be strictly managed due to new Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. These new rules require that:

• a party must, without awaiting a discovery request, promptly identify or produce ESI, documents and tangible items in the party's possession or control that are related to the parties claims or defenses
• law firms must be able to find, collect, preserve, control, review and duplicate ESI

Delay in dealing with document inefficiencies and ESI along with recent changes in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure require law firms to act today or be buried by paper and procedural changes.
