ASSESSMENT
 In order to fully understand your needs, it is important that we find out about your practice, your current
work processes, and your current systems. It is not
uncommon to discover that while technology continues to advance, many law firms
have fallen behind in upgrading their systems. You may not even realize that
your current system is actually causing
inefficiencies--information being re-entered from one system to another, billable
time not being captured, hours lost in document assembly – all of which are
significant ways of reducing profitability by tens of
thousands of dollars each year! Our years of experience provide insight that
enables us to help you easily navigate the process of objectively evaluating
your current system.
SOLUTION
IDENTIFICATION
Once
we have a better understanding of your needs we will help to
identify an objective and cost effective solution for your specific goals. LDM&T
specializes in practice management, document management, and time and billing
software products developed by Software Technology, Inc., World Software
Corporation and CompuLaw. We have years of experience using these products and
stay current with training as new versions are introduced. We are aware that
these particular products will not meet the needs of every single law firm and,
if we find that is the case, we will direct you to the products we feel will
best suit your needs. For those firms who will benefit from the products
we support, we
will work with you to develop a personalized Solutions for Success
plan that will support a well integrated, efficient law office.
CONVERSION OF DATA
Now that the ideal software has been identified, you’ll
want to build a solid foundation. We will assist you in converting your
existing data from its current format (i.e. Timeslips or ProLaw) while
preserving your existing data. We’ve worked with many law firms in many
areas of practice and recognize that your
business is unique. One of the distinct benefits to the products we
support is not only are they easy to use, they are fully and
easily customizable. LDM&T can help you customize the templates and fields
for your particular area of practice and design them in a format to support your
firm’s processing needs. Whether you are integrating a suite of
products, or need just a single product to enhance your current system, we will
be happy to be your conversion partner.
TRAINING
Experience has shown us that true law firm automation requires more than
simply purchasing and installing software applications. It is important to integrate staff,
processes, and software together, with every person's contribution being valued
as an integral part of the work performed each day. The training phase is
developed and services tailored to the needs of each particular firm and each
user’s requirements. We can set up training sessions for billing and accounting
staff as well as sessions designed for secretaries, paralegals, or attorneys.
From expert instruction on the proper use of your new software to the
comprehensive development and implementation of fully automated practice areas, LDM&T can provide your firm with the skill sets necessary to help build your law
practice into an organization that is more efficient and profitable.
MAINTENANCE
LDM&T is dedicated to providing ongoing consulting services as needed.
Whether you need assistance with daily functions, need help with software
upgrades, or just have questions about new technology and how that affects
your system set-up, LDM&T will be available to you.
