Leading Denver and Boston
Based Firms LOS ANGELES –
August 2 , 2010 –
Denver-based Sherman & Howard, LLC and Boston-based
Jackson Lewis LLP recently hosted CompuLaw user group meetings to educate
legal professionals on best practices in court calendaring. The events
focused on risk management considerations for today’s law firms, as well
as new features
and benefits of both CompuLaw Vision™ Version 10 and the CompuLaw Vision
Web Portal™.
These meetings are part of an on-going series of educational sessions that
CompuLaw has successfully presented to organizations and associations
across the country.
“The participant
feedback from our Denver User Group meeting was positive,” said Chris
Luhiau, Docket Specialist/Senior Records Tech at Sherman & Howard, LLC.
“We discussed how important legal calendaring is to the efficient
operation of the law firm, and how to fully utilize CompuLaw's risk
management tools to improve case management. We were also shown
some new features CompuLaw plans to introduce in the near future. All in
all, the presentation was a success and we look forward to hosting our
next meeting in the near future.” Vision is CompuLaw’s trusted calendar/docket matter
management software that enables attorneys to automatically schedule
critical dates in accordance with court rules, greatly reducing the
possibility of missing deadlines through error-prone and time-consuming
manual docket calculations. Vision is a full-featured application for
Windows and is available in MS SQL and SQL Express 2005 (MSDE) versions.
Vision integrates with Microsoft Outlook®, Novell GroupWise®,
Lotus Notes® and the CompuLaw Vision Web Portal™.
The CompuLaw Vision Web
Portal provides users with around-the-clock access to their schedules and
other pertinent calendaring information from any location, via their
individual Web browsers.
CompuLaw Collaborate™, a web part component that integrates
Vision Web Portal with the Microsoft® Office SharePoint®
Server, allows Web Portal’s popular

docketing professionals, and learn how to take full advantage of CompuLaw’s
powerful functionalities,” said David J. Kalmick, president and CEO of
CompuLaw. “In today’s economic times, with insurance rates on the rise and
the number of malpractice claims skyrocketing, we are committed to improving
law firm docketing efficiencies, reducing risk and protecting client
interests.” Prior user group
