Lawyers are simply fed up with emailing themselves file notes from different devices. Users of our software asked for a better solution.
So, we developed CaseLoad Notebooks, our revolutionary new feature designed to transform how legal professionals like you capture and manage your notes.
Every day, lawyers find themselves buried under a mountain of case files, client notes, and spontaneous ideas that they jot down on various devices. Picture yourself in the middle of a courtroom, fervently scribbling notes on your legal pad. Now, imagine later that day, typing additional thoughts into your smartphone during a quick coffee break, or dictating crucial information as you drive back to the office. Each note is essential but managing them all feels like an endless game of catch-up.
Many solicitors we speak to find themselves in these particularly frustrating situations. They finish client meetings where they take extensive handwritten notes. They then rush to court, quickly dictating some additional observations into their phone. Later, they need to consolidate these notes into their firm’s case management system. But as always, the process is cumbersome: typing out handwritten notes, emailing dictations, and trying to piece everything together into a coherent whole.
The Transformation Begins: CaseLoad Notebooks
CaseLoad Notebooks ensures every note you take, no matter the format or device, is seamlessly transferred into your case management system.
For example, we have many clients who use iPads to type notes. With CaseLoad Notebooks, you simply share the notes via email to your firm’s unique CaseLoad email address. Instantly, your notes are added to your case files, eliminating the need for manual entry.
For those who love the tactile feel of handwritten notes. You can write on your iPad, take a photo or uses the camera icon to capture your handwritten notes, and share them via email to the CaseLoad address. CaseLoad Notebooks seamlessly transfers and stores these notes into your case management system, removing the burden of manual transcription.
For those busy moments on the go, you may be inclined to dictate your notes. Using Microsoft SwiftKey, you can dictate your thoughts, share them via email to the CaseLoad address, and CaseLoad Notebooks automatically organises and stores the notes in her case files. No more juggling apps or manual transfers.
CaseLoad Notebooks makes note-taking effortless and efficient, allowing you to focus on your cases and clients.
