Suitable for these Law Firms

Lawcus works well with solo practitioners, small legal firms with up to 20 attorneys, and for the legal departments in larger organizations. It has a CRM system that is fully integrated so attorneys can work on cases and automate processes to deliver effective results with less effort.

Lawcus works with Kanban boards to help attorneys visualize matters. These digital boards can be dragged and dropped to organize them as cases progress with added tasks, and appointments. Documents are uploaded to be stored on the cloud-based servers to be accessible from anywhere.

Pros

CRM is achieved using excellent visual project management tools.
Uses “Lean” methodology with Kanban Boards.
Customer service is excellent.

Cons

Software is still in the beta stage so may be a bit buggy.
Needs to have import/export data features.
Need to set up Zapier for repetitive tasks.
