Benefits

 

Rely on Manage My Day to keep you current.
Offering an expanded day-at-a-glance desktop view, Manage My Day includes a list of recently accessed files and your day's calendar and to-do's. You may click on any listed item to view the update window for that item, use the calendar to view another day's calendar and to-do items, or open a file directly from the recently accessed file list.

A powerful feature of Manage My Day is the automatic notification system, which is called Heads Up. Legal Files allows repeated notification of due dates or tasks through Heads Up. Heads Up messaging automatically notifies users of eight different kinds of items on one screen so important information yet to be resolved is quickly brought to their attention.

Use a tickler system that follows your rules.
Legal Files creates an automated roadmap, using a tickler system that follows the rules you establish. As the claim process progresses, triggers can be set to automatically notify you and others about changes to a claim, assign routinely performed tasks or send e-mail.

Automate the routine.
Simply use a wizard to create to-do's for you automatically -- based on the template or wizard you select. Create as many as you need or want to automate any kind of routine task. Automatically generate key dates and dates. Select a reference, starting date and task style -- that's all there is to it.

Improve relationship management.
Use Name Cards to store personal information on the insured, the claimant or any other party. The foundation of Legal Files, they serve as your office-wide Rolodex. Create a Name Card for claimants, attorneys and witnesses. The data on any person or company you have contact with is stored in one centralized location making sure everyone has access to the most current information. You can also determine relationships and involvement with any claim. When a change is made to a card, it is automatically updated throughout Legal Files -- wherever information from the card is used.

Track all your claims.
Keep track of claims and have nearly instant access to all the details you need -- the date and place of the loss, policy limits, policy reserves, filing information and more.

Track all your items.
Keep track of the details of any item (vehicles, dwellings etc.) involved with a claim. You'll find this very handy feature is invaluable with subrogations.

Create a pleadings index automatically.
Did I send it out? Did I get a response? Which parties were served? What method of service was used? Get the answers. Your index lists documents you have created or pleadings that you have received -- allowing you to look at both sides at the same time. Legal Files creates the index for you in date filed order, assigns an index number to each item and allows you to print your own pleadings index.

Assemble and manage all your documents.
Legal Files is fully customizable. And it's easy. Designed for non-technical people, no programming ability is required. Yet Custom Windows are a powerful tool -- because the Custom Windows you create contain the exact claims information you want. Plus, every field you create -- you can search, you query, you can import into documents.
