For many legal businesses, automation may feel like a harder-said-than-done proposition. Automating a lot of repetitive tasks that are based on rules is ideal. This allows attorneys to concentrate more on client-facing work and strategic activities that bring in revenues.
The advantages of legal practice automatization are clear. It enables lawyers to do what they were trained for offering a better client experience while reducing the risk of human error. However, what may not be so evident is the cost savings that can be achieved.
In an age where the cost of staffing and overheads are always a challenge, automating one procedure could mean that you don’t have to add legal team members. This could allow a solo or small business to remain competitive and have the same budget as larger firms.
A great example is document automation. Instead of wasting time in meetings and emailing documents back and back, legal teams can create and store templates for recurring documents like NDAs, employment documents, or privacy compliance documentation. Once a template is created, colleagues can self-serve to produce the document, without the need of an attorney. This means faster time for clients to get their documents, and less rework on part of legal teams.
Automating a workflow will provide all legal professionals with the tools they need to succeed and improve their efficiency. If you’re unsure of how to begin, record each day’s log for the week. This will aid in identifying tasks that can be automated. Look for tools that can help you automate these tasks. Start slowly in order to not disrupt your routine.
