Simply put, in the 21st century, most industries have systematically updated or upgraded how they work, whether it is to keep up to date with the expectations of their clientele, to boost productivity or to address and resolve budgetary constraints. With all these technological advances shaping the world as we know it, is there an opportunity for the legal industry to fully embrace this shift?
Raphael Segal, Director of Legal Interact, believes that having a system in place to manage all these tedious and heavy administrative tasks allow legal practitioners to focus on what they do best, and that is practising law. This system is called Matter Manager and, by embracing this new technological way of conducting your business, you can find, track and manage various areas in the legal team.
