Freeman Johnson has chosen PracticeEvolve as their practice management software provider, with its productivity suite and legal accounting solution hosted in Microsoft Azure.
The 50-staff North East firm has offices in Darlington, Durham and Northallerton and wanted to implement a solution to manage the end-to-end process from winning new business, to conducting the work, to final bill.
Helen Lannagan, a partner at Freeman Johnson, said: “We have an ambitious growth plan in the coming years and to achieve that we need to modernise the software we are using to manage our workload more effectively. The solution from PracticeEvolve includes an excellent document management system, with built in smart features including document bundling, client portal and integrations with InfoTrack, which will be a significant benefit to all areas of the business. It will enable efficient working across the business, freeing our lawyers to focus on the legal work to improve clients overall experience and achieve operational efficiencies.”
She added: “The PracticeEvolve software is intuitive and it’s similar look and feel to Microsoft products, coupled with the Google like search function, was a real hit with our team. The software will really help us implement a consistent approach to managing both our case load and the business as a whole, while ensuring our teams are working from a single source of data, documents and financial information. Effectively, it will join the whole business together. I am really looking forward to working with PracticeEvolve to achieve operational efficiencies and help us meet our growth ambitions.”
PracticeEvolve has grown its UK offering in the past few years with the acquisitions of Solicitors Own Software and Linetime. Founded in Australia, it launched in the UK in 2018, acquiring Linetime and SOS in 2020.
