According to their research report, most law firms can automate over 23% of their manual legal process using existing technology\u2014a witness to the sea of change technology can bring to the law firms.<\/span><sup><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/sup><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/social-media-for-lawyers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">social media<\/a>\u2014which is sometimes looked down as being frivolous\u2014is known to help tech-savvy lawyers get a steady flow of client referrals.<\/span><sup><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5<\/span><\/sup><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sound unbelievable? Who in the world has the time to Like your Facebook posts when they\u2019re filled with a raging fire to sue their neighbors\u2014right?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But that\u2019s just one example of how far technology can go in helping your law firm yield more results with the relative ease of a push of a button.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s also critical for the legal world to catch up with the fast-pacing, technology-driven world. Today, most attorneys work outside of their offices and run on very hectic schedules.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, clients who pay high retainer fees expect 24\/7 access to their legal teams\u2014especially with upcoming high-profile projects and high-impact lawsuits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Today\u2019s law firm is all about enabling the Virtual Law Office\u2014a digital-driven work arrangement that allows attorneys to connect effortlessly with their colleagues and clients via phone, text messaging, or <a class=\"waffle-rich-text-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/video-call.html\">video calls<\/a> from any location (airport, train, or a vacation beach in Bali) using any device of their choice.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assuming that you are serious about improving your law firm\u2019s efficiency, here are three things you should consider about choosing the right app for your law firm:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"heading h3\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Is the app easy to use?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most law firms (understandably) don\u2019t look to fancy new technology first to solve their problems. In a survey of 700 legal professionals from law firms, legal departments and business services firms across Europe and the US, Wolters Kluwer Legal &amp; Regulatory found that legal professionals resist technology because they think they don\u2019t have the skill or the money to justify embracing tech for their day-to-day operations.<\/span><sup><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6<\/span><\/sup><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And it makes sense\u2014tech is notoriously difficult to regulate, and we\u2019re talking about a profession that\u2019s all about regulation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thankfully, most app makers are aware of this\u2014not just in legal tech, but in general. The majority of productivity and organization apps today are built in a way that anyone, tech-savvy or not, can dabble with it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But just to make sure you don\u2019t invest in an overly complicated app that ends up not being worth your time, make sure you look at ease of use as one of your core requirements when you\u2019re shopping for new software.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is the app easy to understand and use\u2014without you needing to hire an IT team or consultant to help you get started?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your law firm\u2019s bandwidth is already stretched thin with paperwork and client demands. Adding a technologically demanding app will only deepen the chaos further.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>A well-built app, on the other hand, can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/freed-marcroft-customer-story\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">help your law firm provide a 24\/7 client experience<\/a>\u2014even without being online 24\/7.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tip-heading\"><b>\ud83d\udca1 Pro-tip:\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/running-remote-legal-practice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Learn how to build a remote-friendly legal practice in this in-depth guide.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Less is more<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A law firm (generally) doesn&#8217;t need as many apps as, say, a tech company building the next Facebook or Tesla.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Which is good news for you, since it means you don\u2019t have to invest a ton of money every month into software.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"tip\">\n<div class=\"tip-heading\"><b>\ud83d\udca1 Pro-tip:\u00a0<\/b><\/div>\n<p>Resist the temptation of investing in too many tools that come with a ton of \u201cfeature creep\u201d that you\u2019ll never end up using. Choose <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">versatile <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tools, not one-trick-ponies.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you fall into the trap of buying a different app for every single one of your law firm\u2019s processes, you&#8217;ll soon have an expensive stack of software\u2014and a big red underline in your financial audit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The danger compounds beyond financial issues when you choose the wrong apps. Imagine toggling between five different apps constantly every day, managing them, copying and pasting data between each one, and so on. It\u2019s counterproductive to efficiency and adds bloat to your workload.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, you should focus on procuring a few good apps that consolidate the best features and complement your law firm\u2019s processes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A good rule of thumb when deciding between apps designed for legal teams? Look for a clean user interface, simple pricing, and excellent customer support.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Does it help (or hurt) collaboration?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By definition, technology is an enabler of efficiency\u2014it\u2019s supposed to bring people together for better collaboration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But if you happen to choose a clunky app that\u2019s difficult to use, you\u2019ll notice that the opposite is true. In some cases, you might even need a dedicated IT team on standby to supervise these apps (and its users) \u2018round the clock.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s\u2026a waste of everyone\u2019s time. These kinds of apps will end up creating bottlenecks in your workday and prevent you from dedicating time to your clients.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, it\u2019s usually a good idea to choose communication-friendly apps that help your team stay in touch with each other across <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/us\/en\/blog\/communication-channels\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">different channels<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is especially true as law offices are catching up with the rest of the world in working from anywhere and everywhere.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a id=\"what\"><\/a><br \/>\nWhat types of apps should law firms consider?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just because TikTok exists doesn\u2019t mean you too have to upload videos showing your team\u2019s dance moves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You just need apps that are specifically built to solve <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">your<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> law firm\u2019s problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping that in mind, we\u2019ve shortlisted top 11 best apps for lawyers under the following five categories:<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"#one\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best communication apps<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"#two\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best timekeeping apps<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"#three\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best productivity apps<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"#four\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best dictation apps<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"#five\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Best case management apps<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While being better at communication and productivity are broadly beneficial for all kinds of businesses, the rest of the apps in the above categories are specific to an average law firm\u2019s requirements.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a id=\"ten\"><\/a><br \/>\n11 best apps for lawyers to improve the client experience and work more flexibly<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are plenty of software solutions that can help you become more efficient in your internal processes or increase productivity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below, we have curated top 11 useful apps for lawyers that can help your firm become better at everything.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a id=\"one\"><\/a><br \/>\nBest communication apps for lawyers<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1.

Fantastical<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At its core, Fantastical is a calendar app for keeping up with important dates. But the app does more than just helping you schedule events or set reminders:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-44736\" src=\"\/us\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/fantastical-legal-app-1024x349.png\" alt=\"fantastical legal app\" width=\"1024\" height=\"349\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, Fantastical takes the confusion out of planning events or coordinating multiple invitees to agree on an event\u2019s time by allowing you to suggest multiple times for any event.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Design and complete your projects directly in Fantastical.

Otter.ai<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From recording eyewitness testimony to documenting court hearings, law firms have huge requirements for transcribing spoken words into legal documents. And it can be tedious work to listen to audio recordings repeatedly and manually dictate them into written texts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thankfully, with a speech-to-text app like Otter\u2014you don\u2019t need to hire a full-time dictation specialist or pay a hefty price to a transcription agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Otter sits in your smartphone as a downloaded mobile app or and can convert all of what is being uttered into text in real-time!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also play back the recorded audio at different speed levels, add images or other multimedia content directly into the transcriptions, and important audio\/video files for conversion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Granted\u2014Otter is not perfect. It doesn\u2019t transcribe everything correctly and you have to proofread the transcription for accuracy\u2019s sake. The makers behind Otter app are cognizant of this fact, which is why the app allows you to edit transcriptions directly within the app.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This process is still way better than having to manually go through the same recording multiple times and trying to get everything right.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Otter can recognize different voices and differentiate the notes while it converts the speech into text.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>Best suited for:<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> For smaller law firms that don\u2019t have the budget to hire a full-scale transcription agency.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9.
