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 also increases client satisfaction, by eliminating the monotony of repetitive tasks.
Automatizing legal practices is a multifaceted process that includes a range of tools and systems. To reap the maximum benefits begin by identifying which processes are the most amenable to automation. Some common areas to begin with are document creation, document review, client intake scheduling, and marketing campaigns.
A reliable legal document software program lets attorneys quickly create custom documents for each matter and client and without the need to manually enter data. Document generation is more precise and time-saving by using templates for pleadings and discovery request. Integrating your document automation software with legal practice management programs eliminates the necessity for manual time tracking. Instead, when a document is created, it’s automatically filed in the correct case and client file based on the corresponding data inputs.
AI is a preferred choice of attorneys because it frees attorneys from the monotonous boring work that makes up a large part of their jobs. Freed from the burden of mundane tasks they can focus on the creative and thoughtful analysis that is the characteristic of ethical and competent representation.
Clients are also pleased with how quickly their needs are addressed particularly when compared to the traditional customer experience, which requires lengthy meetings to gather data and verify it. In addition, the ability to create precise, custom documents and streamline client communications through a single system offers a superior client experience, which increases satisfaction and retention as well as referrals.
