Document Renovation
February 01, 2012
Documents are the currency of law firms. Attorneys author, edit and submit thousands of documents daily.

The time spent reformatting and cleaning up documents can be reduced significantly if firms have a process in place for creating and fixing documents based on Microsoft Word's best practices.
