LEAP Documents contains all the precedents, calculations and intelligent document automation you will need to increase your productivity dramatically. LEAP Documents will change the way you work - creating an electronic file at your fingertips. When a client or other party calls, you no longer need to retrieve the paper file.

You can search and find a matter within seconds, open it, and have instant access to the matter's status, the parties involved and the documents that have been created for the matter. Staff are able to add documents to the matter from external sources including emails, enabling you to view incoming correspondence and so obtain a more complete picture of the status of the matter.

Have everything you need in one place

With LEAP Documents you have an Electronic File for each matter. At a glance you have:-

• All the documents sent and received in the matter

• Client information

• Enhanced matter information customised for your needs

• Details of all parties involved

• Powerful matter reporting

• Matter Agenda’s

Instead of telling the client that you cannot find the file, you will quickly and easily reference the required information that you and any member of your team has created for the matter. So even if your assistant is on leave, or the matter is being dealt with by another lawyer you will demonstrate that you run an efficient and professional legal practice.

Even your online searches are performed seamlessly from within LEAP Documents and the search results and diagrams automatically stored against the matter. For even greater convenience, the disbursements are also recorded and passed through to the accounting system ready for invoicing.

Having everything you need in one place will make your work day more pleasurable, will reduce non-chargeable wasted time and will enable you to provide an enhanced level of client service thereby gaining a competitive advantage.

Manage email and all other correspondence by matter

For many lawyers email and other methods of electronic communication is commonplace and is rapidly replacing traditional mail. As a result, referring to the paper file alone carries the risk that some electronic correspondence will be missed.

LEAP Documents integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Outlook to such an extent that even incoming emails with the matter number in the subject line are automatically duplicated and stored against the matter, completely eliminating the risks that a document will be mislaid or missed.

Sending emails from the matter has never been easier and a great comfort is that an enforced preview function minimises the risks of sending an inaccurate email by mistake or in haste. Matter documents are quickly attached to an email and a range of automated PDF options allows you to “lock down” content in secure PDF format.

Any user with access to LEAP can quickly and easily add scanned items to the matter as well. Your outgoing and incoming faxes are also associated with the matter. You will have an Electronic file of all matter information and documents that is instantly available to all users of your system.

Have precedents covering all common areas of law that are constantly updated

LEAP has an extensive set of automated precedents constantly updated to keep your precedents compliant. You have a single database where all matter data is stored and which merges into the correct precedent every time. The dangers of using the incorrect precedent are reduced and staff training costs are minimised. You will find that your staff love using LEAP!
