The “Actions” feature drives the mobile App allowing solicitors to capture important data regarding clients and their changing situation whilst on the move, and saving that important data to the LAWFUSION database making it readily available to colleagues back at the office.  The LAWFUSION App comes pre-installed with Time Recording Forms and Police Station Attendance Forms etc. all highly customisable to suit the needs of the firm. The online/offline capability that is inherent throughout all features of the App makes life very convenient for fee earners on the move.  If there is no WiFi at the police station for example, the forms can still be completed and synchronised to the main system as soon as an internet connection is re-established.

There are many benefits for the mobile fee earner who has access to their system diary and that of their colleagues whilst away from the office. The Diary feature available for App users gives a full view of your diary and you can switch between colleagues’ diaries too, to schedule appointments whilst away from the office, saving valuable time and avoiding clashes. You can also see your important case dates whilst out and about on the move.

The  LAWFUSION Legal Software App includes the facility to capture signatures electronically. This enables fee earners to verify information and instructions from clients, witnesses or interpreters and record this straight to the relevant cases.

Via the app time can be recorded easily by tapping the screen. The Time recording tab within a case shows all recorded time and displays all the relevant details of the recording, including: Fee earner, rate, rate type and whether the time has been posted.

Images from your device camera can be uploaded directly from the LAWFUSION App straight to the LAWFUSION system in your office making it accessible to your colleagues in real time. This is ideal when gathering evidence from a crime scene for example or capturing images of your travel receipts and disbursements etc. whilst on the move.

When a fee earner is out of the office it can be incredibly useful to be able to see to any changes and updates to cases that may have occurred elsewhere in the organisation. The ‘Notifications’ feature, which comes as standard with the LAWFUSION App, lists any cases that have been updated or changed by others whilst you are out and about.  By tapping ‘Notifications’ the mobile fee earner can see a list giving case number, date and details of the changes/ updates – keeping all relevant parties up-to-date regardless of where they are.

The LAWFUSION app is also available for law firms wishing to provide mobile access to their clients for viewing and tracking case details whilst on the move – via LAWFUSION’s Case Tracker.
