Ideal Case Management Implementation

By Shannon Hampton
March 28, 2006

Legal case management software is a valuable tool that law firms use to efficiently manage legal cases. However, while the application provides attorneys with a convenient method of effectively managing client and case information, there is a clear disconnect in many law firms that occurs at the point of implementation.

A great illustration of this disconnect is the data from the 2004-2005 American Bar Association Legal Technology Survey. It found that while 41% of respondents reported having case management software available, only 18% personally use it.
