ELawyering: Importance of Legal Information

by Matthew Pitts

I have written at length about the inner-workings of next-generation e-lawyering applications. I have also explored some of the components that make up an effective e-lawyering solution. As you know, the applications that I discuss reside on the internet. Consequently, we have to consider the overall structure of the elawyering application as well as the components of the elawyering application.

Legal information

One thing that is somewhat of a pain to develop and maintain is the inclusion of substantive legal information and instruction. In my experience, one of the most frequently asked questions by potential users of e-lawyering applications involves post-document support. As I mentioned in a previous post, an effective elawyering solution has a solid plan for post-document support.

One form of post-document support which can also serve as an effective marketing tool is the inclusion of substantial legal information and instruction related to your Tactical Practice Component™. How you organize this information is up to you. You are also free to decide what mixture of media you will provide to ensure an engaging and up-to-date reference for your clients.

I'd love to hear any ideas you might have regarding this topic. Let me know.
