Technology

Technology has impacted considerably in recent years on how lawyers work. We continue to invest significantly in technology to ensure that we are working as efficiently and effectively as possible and to keep us at the cutting edge. We are continually evaluating the technologies we are using with a view to improving our technological capabilities which in turn allows us to provide a better service to our clients. These include:
- matter management - our practice management system allows us to accurately record all of our time we spend on a matter on behalf of a client, to record the details of the lawyers who have worked on it and any associated expenses
- document management - our document management system record details of documents generated in the context of any particular matter, allowing them (subject to applicable security profiles) to be easily retrieved. The document management system includes version control and supports document comparison
- legal information research - our lawyers can access from the desktop, through our intranet and the internet, a comprehensive range of internal and external legal sources including the firm's extensive databanks and precedent banks which have been built from prior knowledge and experience over many years and which are continuously reviewed and updated
- video conferencing - our video conferencing facilities allow enhanced communication between our different offices and between ourselves and our clients
- workflow - we are developing workflow tools to automate routine business processes and procedures thereby minimising duplication of effort and the risk of error in our back office procedures.
