A good legal document automation software solution allows attorneys to quickly produce custom documents for each client and case without the need to manually input information. Utilizing templates for pleadings discovery requests, letters to clients, and many more document creation saves time and increases accuracy. In addition, integrating your document automation program with legal practice management software will eliminate the need to monitor the time that is billable manually.
