Legal staff are constantly under pressure to respond swiftly with accuracy, speed, and consistency. They haven’t enough time to get their billable work done and that’s not even including all the administrative duties and clerical work efforts needed to operate a successful law firm.
Legal workflow automation is a solution to these problems. Automating repetitive manual tasks can help firms develop more efficient processes to provide client service while cutting costs.
For instance, when Foot Anstey implemented document generation software that digitized their templates and automated the process of incorporating new client information into their forms, they could generate custom documents four times faster than before. This freed up time for their attorneys to meet with potential clients and ultimately, win more business.
To maximize the benefits of legal practice automatization, it’s important to determine and prioritize the most time-consuming and error-prone legal procedures. Choose digital automation tools that match your goals and that are capable of scaling. Assist your team in creating and digitizing legal workflows to establish the steps, responsibilities and decisions for these processes. The majority of lawyer automation tools allow for customization, which means you can tailor them to meet your company’s specific needs and preferences.
Legal process automation can improve efficiency by decreasing the amount of manual work, and improves accuracy by eliminating human errors. It also allows lawyers to spend more time on billable work and other revenue-producing activities, allowing smaller firms to remain competitive by reducing expenses for overhead, and also improves communication between employees and clients.
