Business Challenge

The client wanted an online portal where the admin could login and assign cases to the lawyers working with the Client’s Law firm. Once the cases got assigned to the respective lawyers the portal allows the lawyers to log in and update their expenses, time spent, charges and other information pertaining to the cases assigned to them.

Solution

We at Volga Infotech developed an online portal for the client with the following features and functions.

• Client Matters
  This section allows the admin to log in to the portal add the name of the Clients and give a brief description about their cases and assign the same to the lawyers.
• Add Staff
  This section allows the admin to login to the portal and add new lawyers to the firm or make changes to the contact info of the existing ones.
• Time & Expense
  The lawyers or the admin can login to the portal and use this section to log the information related to time spent, charges or expenses on a particular case.
• Invoices and Payments
  This section allows the admin to generate the invoice at any given point during a case. It reflects the amount payable to the law firm by it’s clients.
• Report Generation
  The admin can choose to generate reports on daily, weekly or monthly basis depending upon his choice. The reports once generated can be sent to the Law firm’s clients notifying him about the amount he owes to the law firm.

Benefits

The client was extremely satisfied with the site’s performance, navigation, user friendly presentation and the overall user experience.

Some of the most important benefits that the Client realized with this solution are as follows.

• Spending less time on paperwork and concentrating more on practicing law.
• Simple Time and Legal Billing Features
• Increased mobility that allowed the Law firm employees to access information pertaining to the cases at anytime and from any part of the world using the cloud feature.
