Industrial Engineer Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Legal Files EO" April 22, 2022 5.0 Very nice software to do more work in less time Pros I did not get any errors after performing the installation. It's nice that it can work across multiple databases as well. Cons It's not an easy software to learn, to be honest. The interface should also be renewed, it looks very old now Review Source AD Angela D. Executive District Administrator Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Program" November 30, 2016 5.0 We have had Legal Files since 1999 and I can't imagine how I would have been able to accomplish all that I do in any given day without Legal Files. It has helped us tremendously to work as one unit even though we are in 22 offices. As a manager, not always on the scene, it is detrimental for me to be able to access any information I need and it lets me do that without being in the office. Review Source ML Michal L. Used the software for: ### "Does Everything, But at a Cost" February 6, 2017 4.0 Legal Files is definitely extremely capable software. It is very field-dense, allowing users to keep track of an extremely large amount of data. It does almost everything a law firm needs to have done by practice management software. However, Legal Files needs to be set up correctly to get the maximum benefit of the features. This requires paying the Legal Files support staff (likely) or having someone in-house who knows or can quickly learn the software well enough to do set up (not likely). Firms must also be willing to put in the time necessary to learn the software to get the benefit of the many features. Firms without a culture of innovation may struggle to learn Legal Files well enough to use the features for which they purchased it. Additionally, Legal Files is not cheap software. I do not think it is overpriced for what you get, but it does require a substantial up-front investment for software, training, support (billed separately every year), and either an in-house or virtual server. The fact it is server based makes it less adaptable as firm size fluctuates than cloud-based software. Review Source SV Susana V. Analyst Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Everything done. " July 24, 2018 5.0 Pros Extremely useful in the legal field. It takes time to learn how to use it, but once you get the hang of it it's amazing. The reminders are excellent and you can send reminders to others. Cons Learning curve. However, you need to think of it as a paper file with the different tabs . It takes some time to learn how to use it but it's great. Review Source ZI Zia I. Sr Systems Analyst Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "You will not find another product in the market to track your audit/legal needs " September 5, 2017 5.0 Our Corporate Compliance uses this app for corporate compliance issue tracking/matter management Pros 1\. It runs on multiple DBs 2. Customer Service is great 3. On site Training is included 4. Easy to learn and use 5. It is error free once installed. Cons 1\. User Interface is a little oldish and although can be easily assimilated & understood, is not 21st century 2. Every installation is customized. So IT needs some time to devote to it. But once installed, there are no errors or usage issues. Review Source DR Debbie R. Paralegal Used the software for: ### "Dedicated user since June 2011 and familiar with the software since 2007." October 23, 2015 4.0 Pros: Immediate access to documents by any assigned user (in or out of the office). Our office is trying (and succeeding) to go paperless, so LF allows us to do so the majority of the time. The ease of closing a file in LF is both time-saving and money-saving with off-site storage fees eliminated for 90% of our files. Cons: Would very much like to see improvements in indexing methods (electronic tabbing, if you will) for final/executed documents when there are multiples; i.e., real estate closings (sales, deeds, affidavits, etc.) or litigation (pleadings, briefs, etc.). I need to remind myself to get up from my desk now that we have Legal Files, because everything is at my fingertips at the touch of the keyboard - no need to go to the filing cabinet, etc. Review Source BS Brett S. Associate General Counsel Used the software for: ### "Great software and great service" October 22, 2015 5.0 I have worked with Legal Files software at two different companies now. I find it to be easy to use and very good for keeping our documents and matters organized. The integration with Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Word, and Adobe Acrobat is seamless. In addition, whenever I have had occasion to work with their trainers and customer service personnel, they have been very knowledgeable and helpful. I highly recommend Legal Files. Review Source DK Deborah K. Firm Administrator Used the software for: ### "Easy to use & does everything we need" August 17, 2015 5.0 We've been using Legal Files for many years, and even the new staff members take to it quickly. It handles any type of case. I am a law firm administrator and so what I like about it personally is that I can customize it myself. Our lawyers really like that they can access Legal Files from anywhere and are crazy about the iPad app. And, we all love the fact that we can save email directly to case files. Review Source STO Shirley Taft O. Legal Administrator Used the software for: ### "Positive transformation!" May 5, 2016 5.0 Legal Files became a vital part of our civil defense team. It transformed our practice, and provided an efficient means to meet the needs of complex litigation cases. We appreciate that it is completely customizable, and continues to meet the changing needs of our firm. Review Source PP Paula P. Sr. Paralegal Used the software for: ### "Great for case managment" October 24, 2015 4.0 Legal Files is a great application for keeping your case files in order. All emails, documents and notes are stored in one place making the job easier and helping the user stay organized. Review Source KW Katie W. Paralegal Used the software for: ### "Legal Files in Corporate Legal Dept" October 22, 2015 5.0 I have no complaints with the system--easiest way to store files of all types.
