Dear ABA Members,

My name is Sherry Rydberg, Legal Assistant at Molloy Law in Fort Myers, Florida.

Since small law firms never seem to have enough people, time, or money, it’s very hard to decide which technology investments will really pay off, and it’s often very tempting to just keep doing things the same old way. But one of our best decisions was adding Firm Central®, the practice management software from Thomson Reuters. Here’s why:

1. It Saves (non-billable) Time

Before Firm Central, we’d spend a lot of time getting a new client in the system, filing documents with the courthouse and preparing paperwork for the attorney. Firm Central Time & Billing software has cut the process to about five minutes.

2. We Don’t Miss Anything

The Firm Central Deadline Assistant helps us keep all of our court dates and meetings organized so we don’t miss anything.

3. Access From Anywhere

With Firm Central, everything is in one place and you can access it from any desktop, laptop or Smartphone – even from court.

4. Better Record Keeping And Tracking

I can easily save PDF documents to Firm Central; then when I e-file I can go to the matter, choose the document and send it on its way.

5. A Simpler Work Process

Firm Central makes it much easier to integrate all of your tasks into one smooth system that really saves time and hassle.

6. Easy To Find And Analyze Information

Even if a matter has been closed, you can easily find it if something else crops up with the same client, then add the new information to the file.

7. Easy To Learn

Firm Central is intuitive – you don’t need a training manual to figure out how to get to a document, or where to list your notes or tasks.

8. Confidence And Security

Firm Central is a very secure legal practice management solution and it comes from a well- respected company with a great track record.

9. It Helps Us Compete

A small firm must look every bit as professional as the big law firm around the corner. When a client sees sticky notes, messy desks and paper piles, it implies a certain lack of professionalism. With Firm Central, everything’s there and our offices and matters are organized so we can answer questions quickly.

10. Terrific Support

Training and on-boarding are fabulous. Thomson Reuters provided one person I can call anytime. One of our attorneys really liked the old way of doing things, so we worked as a team to provide ways of doing things he would be okay with.
