The morning will start with an overview of how practice management software can help improve your workflow and a demonstration of the differences between practice management software products: CosmoLex, PracticePanther, Rocket Matter, and Clio. Afterward, you will have an opportunity to learn about timekeeping, encryption, practice management, document automation, data storage, document management, editing, and many other types of legal software that can help you improve your law office efficiency and productivity. You will have plenty of time to test out these products and ask the questions you have not yet had time to get answered. There will be no high-pressure sales – just an opportunity to talk with many vendors all in the same place, get your questions answered, and obtain the information you are seeking.
