“Manual” systems for managing the myriad documents which pass through the doors of even the smallest law firms can – and frequently do – lead to all sorts of missed deadlines and other mishaps. Commercial document management systems are designed to address the common issues law firms face in dealing with this essential element of day-to-day practice management.
Technolawyer has published a report, authored by technology consultant John Heckman, which addresses the basics of document management systems (DMS’s) and provides some insight into how to select a system that will work best for you. This document is available for download from our site by clicking here. If you are not already a member of Technolawyer, we strongly encourage you to apply for a free membership by clicking here. It is an excellent service that attempts to “demystify” technology for practicing attorneys.
