Every member of a in-house legal team is under time pressure. Receiving, reviewing, resolving and reporting on in-house legal work requires rapid digestion and a super smooth legal operations process. You do not have even one minute to spare.
Yet the information captured by a legal matter management software must be accurate, and serve the purpose for which it is deployed - to create a robust single source of truth on all legal work being done by the the corporate legal team.
How do you seamlessly marry speed and accuracy in a matter management system for your legal team? Here are four essentials:
1. Speed
Obvious, but important. Make information capture VERY VERY fast: click (not type) where possible, and enter multiple matters at one time.
2. Information essence
This is "must know" not "nice to know" territory. Date information should be defaulted (e.g. due date = one week), and qualitative information (e.g. priority, size of matter etc) automated, with both allowing for adjustments by exception.
At this point, you are working on the basis that capturing something for all matters is better than capturing everything for only a few matters.
3. User interface
Rapid entry of matters into your legal matter software must feel fast. The process needs to follow an "add > enter > save >> repeat" process that the user feels is natural and efficient.
4. Tagged for updates
Ensuring that all relevant information makes its way into your legal matter management solution will be far easier if matters requiring more fulsome data are easily identified. A small visual indicator is sufficient to prompt your legal team members to update matters added through a rapid process.
