and the date the change was made is tracked in
CompuLaw.
The CompuLaw Synch for Exchange application
transfers dates and tasks from CompuLaw directly
into your users’ Exchange accounts, avoiding the
need to synchronize with Outlook clients on each
workstation.
You may wish to establish a central calendaring system, where your
attorneys and staff send all pleadings and/or docketed items to a central
docket clerk or department for processing by the CompuLaw software
system. A docket department can issue regular reports for each attorney
to keep them abreast of deadlines and case dates, in printed form or
by email. CompuLaw can also send information automatically to your
Outlook, GroupWise, or Lotus Notes calendar—or you can view events
through the CompuLaw Web Portal calendar.
Some firms prefer a decentralized calendaring system. CompuLaw will
protect your firm by keeping all matters in one central database, even
though your setup is decentralized in terms of who uses the data. In such
cases any secretary, paralegal, or other staff member can prepare and
distribute the calendar as desired.
Aderant CompuLaw makes customizing your calendaring practices
easy and effective for everyone in your firm, regardless of your system
preferences.
YOU CAN’T AFFORD TO MISS CRITICAL DATES
When evaluating the reliability and effectiveness of a rules-based
software system, the most important factor is the accuracy of the
rules. The accuracy, comprehensiveness, and depth of the rules that
CompuLaw publishes is the foundation of our software system.
CompuLaw Rules are the most comprehensive, accurate and reliable
rules available.
RULES FEATURES
Ongoing Rule Updates: When rules change, CompuLaw attorneys
research and adjust dates as needed.
Rules Converted to Formats: Court days vs. calendar days (and even
a mix of both), local vs. state or federal holidays, counting backwards
or forwards for weekends and holidays—CompuLaw takes all these
scenarios and more into consideration and delivers the most accurate
rules-based calculations available on any platform.
Quick Dates Feature: Generate rule dates that you do not wish to store
in the database.
