It’s no secret that just about everything is paperless these days. Many retail stores email receipts instead of printing them. You can pay most of your bills online. Even some waiters are starting to taking orders with iPads instead of on paper.
So it stands to reason that you’d want to make your law firm paperless, too. However, doing so can seem like an insurmountable challenge.

You’ll save time and money by having all your important files stored electronically. Plus, you’ll make your clients happy as well.
