The success of law firms relies on a steady flow of billable revenue, much of which is driven by individual lawyers servicing customers. But lawyers are often burdened by administrative paperwork, over-heads and inefficient processes that limit the time they can actually spend on billable client work. So, given the opportunity to cut out some of this waste and focus more time on generating revenue, wouldn’t you jump on it? Many law firms are doing just that.

Law firms such as Allen & Overy, Clarke Will-mott, Eversheds, Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer, Linklaters and Shoosmiths have jumped on the business process management (BPM) bandwagon – using the latest in BPM software technology to eliminate paper forms, reduce overheads, automate processes and reduce risk.
