Document Automation

Overview

Your business probably has a host of documents that you use over and over again. Contracts, leases, pleadings, motions, instructions, wills & trusts, divorce settlements, fax cover sheets, employment agreements, client letters, and government forms are all examples of documents that contain repetitive information.

Many lawyers and legal professionals spend hours deleting and retyping information such as names, dates, addresses, phone numbers, plurals, pronouns, and verb tenses. These copy-and-paste techniques are laborious and time-consuming – not to mention prone to error.

Is this what your clients should be paying you to do?

As an attorney, clients come to you for your knowledge, skills and judgment. So why are you spending your time performing mundane tasks? Are you meeting client demands for quality services at a competitive price? Are you keeping up with today’s technological landscape, or slowly falling behind?

Document Automation (or Document Assembly) is the process of creating a letter or electronic document based on an existing template. The process allows you to generate customized documents in minutes rather than hours. By automating mundane and time-consuming tasks, you can focus on activities that require more personal elements.
