Common Challenges in Law Firm Operations
Legal professionals juggle multiple cases, deadlines, and compliance requirements. Before adopting Legalboards for workflow automation, firms faced common pain points such as:
- Time wasted on manual task tracking
- Lack of workflow visibility
- Delays in case progression due to inefficient communication
“Legalboards has helped me stay on top of cases and make sure that all tasks are completed in a timely manner. My staff does not need to remember to do things, Legalboards automatically assigns the tasks based on the rules we set up.” – Frances, CEO
On average, law firms spent over 20 hours per month on manual task tracking, with inconsistent follow-ups leading to missed deadlines. Teams struggled to see real-time case progress, and communication gaps between attorneys and support staff resulted in redundant work.
“[…] You can see the status of matters from a bird’s-eye view. It made it easy to visualize the flow of our cases and discover where the bottlenecks were.” – Tina, Office Manager
