Time-Saving New Service Lets Lawyers Check Depo Calendar from their Blackberries This new service gives attorneys and paralegals secure web access to their downloadable transcripts, case files, current deposition schedule and invoice information. It also provides them with a "smart" online scheduler, which is superior to standard web forms because it remembers the user's previous job requests, so they do not have to enter a lot of information each time they make a new request. This saves time and reduces errors by eliminating re-keying. In addition to the smart scheduler, this new service makes it easier for attorneys and paralegals to get information quickly whenever and wherever they want because they can access their job calendar and invoice balances via their BlackBerrys, web-enabled cell phones or other mobile devices. They can look up a scheduled job's details, including Google Maps directions to the location, and see what their balances are on outstanding invoices -- all without turning on a computer or making a phone call. If they do log on from their desktop or laptop, they can do even more online. They can use online case repositories for downloading and sharing files with co-counsel or anyone else helping them on a case. And lawyers no longer have to carry copies of transcripts and exhibits when they travel. Instead, they can download that information on the spot wherever they have online access. Questions about upcoming job times and locations, or outstanding bills, no longer have to wait for a return phone call for answers. The RB Web online office always has the most complete, up-to-date information on schedules and invoices available around the clock, every day of the year. Invoices can be paid online as well, eliminating the need to write and mail checks. This is possible because the online offices are directly tied to Geiger & Loria's in-house scheduling and billing system. Information on the system is secure because it resides on Geiger & Loria's server protected by firewalls, encryption and passwords. Lawyers and paralegals can only access information through online offices for which they have user IDs and passwords. They cannot view confidential information they do not have authority to view, nor can unauthorized people view their information. Law firms interested in experiencing the easy-to-use, convenient online office are encouraged to contact glrs@GeigerLoria.com.. |
