How to Solve the Paper Records Workflow That’s Killing Your Firm

2021-08-04T15:25:27-07:00April 19th, 2017|White Papers and Articles|

In DocSolid’s 2016 IG-Records Survey, it was found that 57% of a firm’s formally-filed paper documents were printed directly from the firm’s own paperless document management system. That percentage would grow another 39% if you gathered up all the other DMS-printed paper that is scattered around the firm — on lawyers’ desks, in secretary workstations, and in hallway boxes.

So, if we already have these documents properly stored in the DMS, why do we print, file, store, and archive them as paper?

To start, we print because many attorneys like to work with paper. That is why almost all law firms still run enormous paper filing operations. We keep filing, refiling, moving, and storing DMS-printed paper documents because the filing staff, and even the attorney, aren’t sure if the corresponding electronic version is in the DMS. The paper is filed, and the print-file-store-archive cycle continues.

ROI of Going Digital at Lindquist & Vennum

2018-06-27T23:13:28-07:00April 13th, 2017|White Papers and Articles|

Two years ago, Lindquist moved to a fully electronic matter file, and the benefits continue to flow both in the service of our clients and back to the firm, providing substantial savings, productivity and information governance. Here’s a look at what we did.

The process began by accommodating a small group of attorneys who wanted increased mobility and access to their files from remote locations. Their success created momentum within the firm to move to a fully electronic matter file, which we did in January of 2015.

To create the fully electronic matter file, Lindquist needed a productive solution for scanning and integrating documents into the document management system (DMS). Lindquist selected KwikTag Legal because it is an integrated scanning solution that embeds within our existing application software. It manages related paper digitally and scans directly to our existing DMS.

War Stories – Making the Business Case for Going Digital

The cost and risk of paper records are a severe business burden, negatively impacting the daily workflow of legal attorneys and staff, inflating real estate needs, impeding information governance, and perpetuating offsite records storage. Law firms must address both inbound paper as well as the document prints from the firm’s DMS to close the digital and physical records gap.

We know this, but how can we build the business case and related initiative to solve this? What can you take to your firm’s executive committee to make the case for going digital?

Making the Business Case for Going Digital: 360 Degrees of ROI

2021-08-04T15:51:49-07:00March 2nd, 2017|White Papers and Articles|

Conventional law firm paper records systems are not sustainable in today’s legal market. More law firms are getting serious about paperless office solutions, for a variety of return on investment (ROI) reasons. The cost, risk, and inefficiencies of paper records are severe business burdens to the practice of law. Removing paper from the document management process improves the speed and quality of service delivery. Aligning a law firm’s paper-to-digital initiative to specific payback targets brings clarity to the return on investment and allows for usage of the 360-degree ROI model.

A formal ROI process, supported by detailed spreadsheets of financial affirmation, is rarely the basis for a law firm moving forward with a paperless office solution. Rather, a long list of obvious payback benefits is cited. The firm begins a project to drive through a sequenced subset of those ROI targets based on the project approach.

ILTA Webinar – Remove Half the Paper with Innovative Technology

2021-08-19T08:45:55-07:00November 1st, 2016|Presentations and Webinars|

57% of all the paper in law firms is a printout from your firm’s existing electronic file in the document management system (DMS). We print because attorneys and staff sometimes like to work with paper. We don’t need or want to file and store these duplicate documents, but we do: we keep filing, re-filing, moving and storing that paper because we don’t know, for sure, that we already have the most recent, electronic version. This is why one AmLaw 20 firm notes: “The Redweld is a guilt-free trash can.”
