 Time To Reduce The Cost And Preparation Time Of Your Attendance Notes!

Time To Reduce The Cost And Preparation Time Of Your Attendance Notes!

Well over half of solicitors feel that stress in the legal industry is a major issue that can have an impact on employees. It’s widely agreed upon that more can be done to streamline working processes and increase efficiency.

Surges in Wills being contested means Will drafters must ensure their procedures are robust, to reduce risk to their business and their clients. A fully detailed account of the context of decisions must be recorded alongside the creation of Wills, so you are able to give the deceased a voice should they be challenged.

Successful challenges to Wills very often the result of poor housekeeping and administrative errors within paper-based processes. So the quality of attendance notes and the efficiency of how they are produced must improve.

Where it’s all going wrong

Putting pen to paper was sufficient when it was the only way to do things but has always had its drawbacks and can lead to:

  • Misinformation
  • Mistakes
  • Misplacement

As a result, automated systems have been adopted as a means of reducing workload and saving time and money in the Will drafting process – so is it time for you to utlise the power of technology?

Don’t get stuck in the past…

Many legal firms continue to use paper-based systems to run their businesses, often falling short when it comes to attendance notes. Using paper poses an increasing problems, including:

  • Unnecessary costs
  • Time inefficiency
  • Less client satisfaction
  • Security risks
  • Inaccuracies within documents

This is why an increasing number of companies are beginning to look at more innovative systems to deliver their services.
