(Media-Newswire.com) - NEW YORK, NY, June 13, 2007 - LexisNexis and NetDocuments announced today that three additional law firms are using the companies’ document management services. Using NetDocuments® from LexisNexis®, law firms can store documents and e-mails in a secure, globally-accessible repository and eliminate all overhead associated with local management of servers through a software-as-a-service ( SaaS ) model.
Due to the ease of use of the SaaS service and the peace of mind that comes from built-in business continuity, a growing number of leading law firms are trusting their document management to LexisNexis and NetDocuments, including:
• Hudson Cook, LLP a 40-attorney firm headquartered in Maryland with additional offices in New York, Connecticut, Washington, D.C., Virginia and California.
“NetDocuments gives our attorneys easy access to documents no matter whether they find themselves in one of our various offices or on the road,” said Robert Cook, managing partner of Hudson Cook. “In addition, NetDocuments lets us share documents with clients in a secure manner and deliver flexible work space environments to our attorney teams. Those benefits, coupled with lower maintenance costs, made NetDocuments a clear choice for our Firm.”
• Niles Barton & Wilmer, LLP, a 33-attorney firm based in Maryland.
• Bartlit Beck Herman Palenchar & Scott LLP, a 59-attorney firm based in Chicago and Denver.
“When firms see how simple it is to share documents online with clients, and integrate their e-mail directly into the document management system, they move quickly to embrace the SaaS model,” said Ralph Calistri, senior vice president and general manager of the LexisNexis Practice Management solution line. “For example, our consultants worked with Bartlit Beck to determine their document management needs. Within days of seeing our demo, we were helping them with training and data conversion, and the firm was up and running with NetDocuments from LexisNexis in a few short weeks.”
NetDocuments from LexisNexis provides law firms a less costly and more streamlined approach to document and email management.
