In the never-ending battle of documents waged in law firms across the country, the devil lies in the details and the exorcist lies in software tools that automate and expedite tedious work. When it comes to document comparison utilities, a solution must maintain the integrity of one’s original work while simultaneously enabling colleagues, co-counsel, clients, and even opposing counsel to make changes and suggestions that are easy to spot.
Given these parameters, law firms should consider Workshare Technology’s DeltaView document comparison utility ( http://www.workshare.net), which I recently implemented on 18 workstations in my small firm. Workshare Technology designed DeltaView with legal professionals in mind: it enables collaboration while understanding fundamentally that minor changes to language can result in significant gains or losses.
