A group legal plan attorney explains why GRYPHON is just right for his practice
Group legal practice has been growing at a rapid pace. GRYPHON is the first software company Ive found that has paid attention, and has produced software that really works for this industry. In general, the software is a first-rate case management package with document creation, time and billing, calendar, and rolodex functions. The design is clean, and the functions are easy to understand and use.
Several things set this software apart. One is the way that Gryphon groups data into accounts. An account can represent an individual, or a larger entity such as a labor union, or insurance plan. Each account can generate many matters, each with its own client. This allows you to bill each account for multiple matters. With the more traditional "one account, one client" software, you must bill each client separately, or somehow combine invoices.
Another feature that is critical to my high-volume office is Gryphons remarkable ability to handle the constant daily stream of phone calls. We can now time a call, link it to the matter, and enter phone notes as the call progresses. Two more mouse clicks automatically create a detailed bill slip, and were ready for the next call.
Our company has specialized reporting requirements. Insurance companies, Trust funds, and Legal plans require regular reports on attorney hours per account, etc. Gryphon automatically creates these reports, and has eliminated the countless hours that we once spent compiling and entering this information.
