## Overview

### Key benefits of Firm Central

Firm Central places data, documents and tools into the cloud to centralize law practice management and secure connectivity across four core feature modules.&#10;&#10;The matter management dashboard intuitively organizes case file contacts, task lists, associated case notes, legal documents, communications and scheduled events.&#10;&#10;Time \&amp; Billing software tracks billable minutes with a built-in timer to create accurate invoices, while syncing with QuickBooks Online to eliminate data duplication.&#10;&#10;Deadline Assistant calculates and manages court deadlines from multiple sources and places them into a single centralized calendar, sending automatic updates and reminders.&#10;&#10;Custom Forms offers a word processor-like tool for building automated forms, before uploading them into the system for safely sharing throughout the whole firm.

## Reviews

### "Not entirely user-friendly, but good bang for your buck" — 4.0/5

> **Janet** | *4 December 2018* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The calendaring feature is great\!  Most of the people we have asked for help with the program have been extremely responsive and helpful.
> 
> **Cons**: There are so many options in the Deadline Assistant, that it is often difficult to find what I am looking for.  For events like "Court Holidays" or "Attorney Out of Office"  I have to create a fake client matter and calendar it for that just so the entire office can see it.  I wish there was a way to make an event, viewable to the entire office, without having to attach a matter to it. Integration has not been as swift as we though it would be.  It's laborious and extremely time consuming to move all our clients' documents from our current platform to Firm Central.

### "Firm Central Case Mangement Review" — 5.0/5

> **Lauren** | *4 December 2018* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like how it is very user freindly. It is easy to navigate, and customer support is excellent.
> 
> **Cons**: I would recomend that Frim  Cen tral/Westlaw allow their customers to have trial access to their addins before commiting to a subcristion agreemnt (or an increase in their subcription agrrement). There are many futures that I think could be benifial to our firm. However, I want to test the product before commiting to it.

### "Waste of Time and MONEY." — 1.0/5

> **Kathleen** | *8 March 2019* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: the matters page is setup to provide a information on a case.
> 
> **Cons**: Billing.  I received bills for thousands of dollars in a two month time frame for "out of network/contract" usage.  I wasted ten hours on the phone and emails, talking to 7 different westlaw representatives explaining the problem.   Finally, west admitted they had the WRONG registration key and they would correct THEIR mistake. I wrote in to cancel my contract, the representation, sent me my contract telling me I could not cancel Firm Central until 2021.   Today, I received another erroneous bill, I am again on the phone correcting West's , mistakes wasting my morning billable time.

> 
> **Pros**: It is easy and intuitive, and it does not require too much training. I like how it integrates with the west law features.
> 
> **Cons**: It was easy to integrate this tool with the other software we were using.
> 
> It has helped my team to organize the tasks and deadlines and reorganize tasks when one employee is overloaded with work.

### "Fenton was very helpful and knowledgeable" — 4.0/5

> **Wendy** | *10 October 2017* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Having everything in one  place. The matter page for each client is neat, organized and easy to read.
> 
> **Cons**: Having to flip back and forth between screens, not being able to pull lists of data for cases overall or pursuant to specific parameters.
