Amicus Attorney (Case Management)
Many of you
have recently upgraded from previous versions of Amicus Attorney to version 5.
The Amicus 5.1 update has a number of worthwhile features (it's a free update
for current Amicus 5.x users).
You can
read more about the new features here. However 3 of the features that are in
this update deserve to be mentioned here - because we like them and we believe
you will find them useful - and they are easy to use!
Contact Relationships
Amicus Attorney allows you to establish relationships between Contacts, as well
as specify the nature of those relationships. This functionality significantly
improves your management of Contacts by letting you view a list of all related
Contacts, as well as add, modify, and delete those relationships. When
conducting a conflict-of-interest search for a Contact, all related contacts
will be included in the search as possible conflicts.
The Related Contacts brad on the right side of the Contact detail lists all
related contacts as well as the nature of those relationships, which can be
added, edited and updated.
New Attach to File Button
The Amicus Attorney Tasks toolbar now includes an Attach to File button. Team
Members can now choose to attach any document they are working on in Microsoft
Word or Corel WordPerfect directly to an Amicus Attorney File.
Redesigned E-mail Details Dialog
By customer request, the E-mail Details dialog has been redesigned and expanded
in size. All functionality is available in one dialog. No longer do you have to
toggle between the Message and More tabs to use the available functions.
Should you prefer, the E-mail Details dialog can be condensed in size by
clicking the Down Arrow button in the top-right corner of the dialog.
The new E-mail Details dialog still displays the basic e-mail details, such as
the name of the person who sent the e-mail, contained in the original E-mail
Details dialog. It also contains functions and data that relate to the
integration of the e-mail, and any attachments, with your Amicus Attorney
Contact, File, Calendar, and Time Sheet information.
To work with attachments, click the Attachments button in the E-mail Details
dialog, an E-mail Attachments dialog appears. This dialog allows you to view the
attachments in its native application (e.g., Word, WordPerfect), specify a path
to which you wish to save the attachment, associate the attachment with a file,
and view the E-mail in your E-mail program.
CaseMap makes it easy to
organize and explore the facts, the cast of characters, and the issues in any
case. From your first meeting with a prospective client, CaseMap helps you
capture your thinking and communicate it to everyone on the trial team.
