Salesforce is one of the world’s most respected customer relationship management (CRM) tools. We built NuLaw on Salesforce because we trust the software and its reputation. We have taken what is already a solid CRM platform and used it to build a legal case and practice management platform that can make your law firm more productive and profitable.

Automation Improves Productivity

If you are not using a modern case management software package, it is likely that your law firm is still doing a lot of tasks manually. Those tasks are reducing overall efficiency by distracting attorneys from what matters most. NuLaw changes that with automation.

NuLaw automates manual tasks throughout your practice, tasks like creating milestones and checklists. Your lawyers will not have to devote time to those tasks anymore, giving them more time to actually practice law. As such, they will be more productive. What does that mean for your firm? Increased caseload.

Better Billing Means Faster Payments

NuLaw’s billing capabilities makes lawyers more profitable by offering more streamlined ways to track billable hours, generate invoices, and process payments. Again, these are all areas that consume considerable time when handled manually. What makes it worse is that tracking, invoicing, and payment processing does not have to be so cumbersome.

With NuLaw, your firm’s billable time will be tracked more efficiently. Invoices will be generated more accurately and in a more timely manner. Payment processing will be as seamless as it can be. The result will be your firm getting paid faster, which leads to greater profitability in the long run.

Better Case Management Makes for Better Attorneys

Perhaps the most important aspect of the NuLaw software is its ability to make attorneys better at what they do. For example, consider the built-in document library where your lawyers can store everything from document templates to articles on case law. The document library gives them access to that data no matter where they are.

NuLaw features integrated research tools to help attorneys obtain the information they need to move their cases forward. It features advanced reporting and secure communication tools that help lawyers make decisions more quickly. All these features work together to keep your lawyers ahead of opposing counsel at every step. In short, your attorneys are made better when they utilize the case management tools in NuLaw.

Marketing Tools for Improved Case Acquisition

Finally, the business side of running a law firm relies heavily on the ability of attorneys to acquire new cases. Once again, NuLaw makes lawyers more productive and profitable with a set of built-in marketing and acquisition tools.

These tools deliver qualified, compiled cases directly to your firm without all the legwork required by manual marketing and acquisition. Your lawyers will spend less time on case acquisition and more time working on current cases. That is the way it should be. Why? Because your attorneys are practitioners of the law, not marketers.

It is clear to us that NuLaw makes lawyers more productive and profitable. We would like the opportunity to demonstrate this fact to your law firm. Feel free to contact us for more information or sign up for your free trial. We are confident that NuLaw will transform the way your firm operates.

NuLaw is a cloud-based legal case management platform capable of taking any law firm to the next level. By transitioning every aspect of case and practice management to the cloud using NuLaw, law firms from coast-to-coast are becoming more efficient and productive. Your law firm can do the same.

Here are three reasons to move your case management to the cloud, via NuLaw:

1. The Cloud Is Secure

One of the early concerns of cloud computing was security. IT teams were convinced that storing data in the cloud was inherently less secure because said data was out their control. Those concerns were legitimate way back when. They no longer are.

According to a 2012 study cited by TechTarget’s David Linthicum in 2014, data at the time showed that cloud environments were no more likely to be attacked than local networks. Furthermore, the study showed that data access was more critical to security than data location.

The findings of that study were echoed in a piece published by The Conversation in January 2018. That piece made the case that cloud security is superior to most forms of local network security for the simple reason that cloud data is encrypted. Moreover, access to data is heavily restricted in the cloud. The combination of both makes the cloud a secure place for case management software – even if you believe local storage is equally secure.

2. The Cloud Is User Friendly

Next is the issue of usability. A law firm working with case management software hosted on a local network restricts usability to that local network. The cloud opens up usability. The contrast is obvious to any lawyer who finds him or herself attempting to work on a case outside of the office.

That lawyer must connect to that local network in order to access data. That’s all well and good, but does the network support multiple devices? In other words, does the case management software the firm uses play well with smartphones and tablets, or does it only work with computers? Furthermore, how is the local network accessed from the outside?

Cloud-based software is not limited to desktop PCs, laptops, and temperamental local networks. Cloud-based applications are accessible from virtually anywhere one has an internet connection, using virtually any modern device.

3. The Cloud Encourages Automation

Finally, the concept of cloud computing is framed around the idea of efficiency. To that end, the cloud invites automation as a matter of course. You can see that clearly in the NuLaw software. We have built automated features into the software for the sole purpose of making law firms more efficient.

Take milestones, for example. Managing milestones manually takes time and effort. But it is totally unnecessary. We have automated milestones within NuLaw so that attorneys and their staffs can focus their limited resources on more important things.

The cloud is not only a storage and application environment, it is a completely different mindset. Moving your case management software to the cloud will change the way your law firm does business in the modern world. Moving it to the cloud with NuLaw will put you on the cutting edge of an entirely new mindset in the legal profession.
