JACKSONVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA, UNITED STATES, November 26, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In her first published article in a series of four, Janet Reed focuses on Family Law Case Management by software and other technologies. The complete articles will be published on the blog of Ms. Reed at https://janetreedesq.blogspot.com/

Family Law is constantly changing and technology is advancing. Family Law attorneys must keep up with these technological and societal changes. Many of us still remember when they first saw a personal computer, when cell phones became widely available, and when cell phones turned into smart phones that have become indispensable for many. Today computers and cell phones are inescapable.

Incorporating technology into a Family Law practice can make the practice more efficient and increase client satisfaction. In fact, technology may enable the Family Law practitioner to exceed client expectations. Here are a few, simple-to-implement options.

Case Management Software

Today it is virtually impossible to manage a Family Law practice without software. Forms are too long and complicated, and change often as courts update them and impose additional requirements. It is almost a full-time job keeping with all Family Law, Child Support, and all other law and regulatory changes. Long gone are the days of paper routing slips, desktop inboxes and consecutive reviews by paralegals and attorneys during which papers and files are shuffled back and forth. With Family Law case management software, incoming documents are reviewed in a pre-determined sequence or as authorized, and files or documents are updated the same way. The staff has real-time access to documents and status reports. Important dates are automatically entered into a calendar. Case Management Software also enables legal teams to focus on a pre-set process, thus saving time and energy, and greatly reducing the stress in this deadline-driven profession. Case Management Software can also greatly reduce costs for the law practice and the clients by standardizing and accelerating document creation and maintenance.

There are many different kinds of Case Management Software, some general ones such as:

https://www.capterra.com
https://www.clio.com
https://www.mycase.com
https://www.trialworks.com
https://www.cosmolex.com

But such general case management systems do not specifically address Family Law matters. For that, there are management systems more tailored for Family Law matters, such as www.clio.com and www.mycase.com, and www.smokeball.com.

These are just a few examples, and should not be considered endorsements of any of these products. Each Family Law practice should make sure to test them carefully before buying, and take advantage of the free test versions or consultations that many software providers offer as part of their sales process. Find the right software to fit your own needs and your client’s expectations.

Research and Mobile Technology

Subscription research services such as LEXIS and Westlaw have been available to attorneys online for decades, gradually rendering hard copy law libraries obsolete. The internet has done for law what it has for every other area of modern life, providing instant access to information.
