Is Your Firm Taking Advantage of Legal Technology?

Trust Accounting

If you ask people to reel off a list of some of the most educated professions, the legal profession will undoubtedly get a mention. Educated professionals across different industries have always utilized technology to increase their business’s ability to operate efficiently.

Getting attorneys to adopt new technologies to improve the operations of their firm hasn’t always been as easy as it has in other industries. Law firms tend to face more regulations and stiffer penalties for violating those regulations than many other industries, and utilizing just any technology instead of legal specific technologies can lead to ethics violations that may even result in disbarment.

Is Your Small Firm Using Web Based Practice Management Software?

According to a 2015 study by the American Bar Association only 35% of solo and small law firms are now using web based software for law-related tasks. The math behind this statistic tells us that 65% of small firms aren’t taking advantage of legal technology that could take their firm to the next level.

Managing a law firm is no simple task. There are multiple areas of the business that need to be managed including:

In a smaller firm it is extremely likely that you do not have the personnel on staff to manage these different areas of your practice, especially when it comes to your legal accounting tasks. Some firms will try to bring in an accountant once a month, but unfortunately once a month isn’t enough, and your run of the mill accountant doesn’t have any expertise required to successfully navigate the world of legal accounting.
