Breakout 8 | Smarter, faster drafting - From start to signature


Drafting documents is a pressure point in every law office.  Most lawyers draft new documents by finding old documents and modifying them to work for the next case or client.  This approach has a high margin of error, it’s inefficient, and there are superior, alternative methods.  In this seminar, you’ll learn how to find and consolidate the best of your firm’s intellectual capital in a way that increases drafting speed and accuracy.  I’ll lay out the roadmap for professional template-building (there’s a lot more to it than you think); and show you the spectrum of automation tools from the amazing things Microsoft Word is already capable of to document automation applications.  For document-intensive and transactional areas of practice, improved drafting methods directly impact the bottom line and improve client satisfaction.  Prepare to be amazed at the possibilities.
