Increase Legal Team Productivity with These 5 Proven Methods

Legal technology expert shares legal team productivity best practices involving information governance, AI, collaboration, and technology—in a new article from Messaging Architects

HOBOKEN, N.J., March 8, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Messaging Architects, an eMazzanti Technologies Company and legal technology expert, promotes ways to increase legal team productivity in a new article. The informative article first asserts that legal team costs directly impact the bottom line.

The author then encourages readers to determine the baseline productivity of their legal team. After discussing steps to strengthen information governance, he advocates the use of AI and automation where possible. He also explains how increased collaboration between in-house and outside counsel improves productivity for both legal teams. He concludes by asking readers to consider wise technology choices to increase legal team productivity.

"A combination of improved information governance, automation, collaboration, and strategic adoption of legal technology can increase legal team productivity by 23 percent or more," stated Greg Smith, Vice President of Services Delivery at Messaging Architects.

Below are a few excerpts from the article, "Increase Legal Team Productivity with These 5 Proven Methods."

Determine Your Baseline Legal Team Productivity

"To map the route to a more productive future, the legal team must first determine its starting point. For instance, a team that lacks effective strategy will operate reactively, scrambling with every request for information and turning immediately to outside counsel."

Take the Next Step to Strengthen Information Governance

"Next to people, data may have the biggest effect on productivity. For instance, early case assessment plays a critical role in determining case strategy. And because nearly 98 percent of all cases settle out of court, streamlining the data assessment phase reduces costs. Solid information governance simplifies that process."

Use Automation and AI Where Possible

"Automation and AI also bring significant improvement to the eDiscovery process. In the first place, AI tools can find data across multiple data platforms much more quickly. AI can also suggest related documents that manual searches might miss. And with in-place searches, the legal team can quickly identify relevant documents, reducing the over-collection of data."

Increase Legal Team Productivity with Wise Technology Choices

"Driving information governance, streamlining legal holds, and taking the pain out of eDiscovery offer just a few examples of legal technology benefits. Practice management software simplifies case management, scheduling, billing, and accounting. Microsoft even offers a version of Microsoft 365 geared for law firms."
