Adding automation technologies to a legal practice may seem like an easier-said-than-done thing, but if it’s done right, it can dramatically boost productivity. It can also improve customer satisfaction, by eliminating monotony from repetitive tasks.
Automatizing the legal practice is a multifaceted process that includes a range of tools and systems. Begin by identifying the processes that are most amenable for automation. Start with document creation review, document creation scheduling, client intake, and marketing campaigns.
A reliable legal document automation software allows attorneys to quickly produce custom documents for every client and matter without the need to manually input information. Utilizing templates for pleadings discovery requests, letters to clients and more document generation can save time and improves accuracy. In addition, integrating your document automation software with legal practice management software eliminates the requirement to track the billable hours manually. When a document is generated and filed, it will automatically be placed into the appropriate case and client files based on data inputs.
AI is a favorite among attorneys due to its ability to free attorneys from the monotonous, boring work that is an integral part of their jobs. With no burden of mundane tasks attorneys can focus on the imaginative and intelligent analysis that is the hallmark of ethical and professional representation.
Clients also appreciate how quickly their matters are handled as compared to the traditional experience that requires long meetings to collect information and verify it. The ability to create accurate customized documents and streamline communications with clients through an integrated system enhances the client experience by increasing satisfaction, retention and referrals.
