LawToolBox, a software as a service (SaaS), calculates court deadlines online based on rules of procedure and automatically synchronizes those deadline to Outlook, Google, Time Matters and others. LawToolBox charges a one-time “per law suit” fee that law firms pass through to their clients (which means law firms typically pay nothing for the deadline calculation, but may qualify for significant di
scounts on their malpractice premiums). Attorneys and paralegals use LawToolBox to calculate rule-based deadlines, automate case deadline charts, print firm-wide and attorney-specific deadline reports, and send email ticklers. LawToolBox seamlessly synchronizes automated deadlines into Outlook, Google, Time Matters and others every 15 minutes based on the format and reminder preferences that each user has selected. For example, one user for a case might get a reminder on their calendar on the “day of deadline”, 3 days before the deadline, and 14 days before; while another user on the same case might choose to get their deadlines in their Task list. As LawToolBox users upgrade or move to Outlook 2013 or 365, they can take advantage of the new LawToolBox Court Deadline Email App for Outlook on Office.com/store (4 min video) to increase collaboration across attorneys and their clients. This solution provides all parties with a single repository of deadlines, real-time, online and in their Outlook Inbox and thereby increases awareness and reduce risk of missed deadlines.
