Perkins Coie Automates Calendaring Process With Aderant CompuLaw
With almost 900 lawyers in 19 offices across the United States and Asia and having just celebrated its 100-year anniversary, Perkins Coie represents companies across a wide range of industries and stages of growth ' from start-ups to Fortune 500 corporations. With a substantial case load comes a variety of processes and tasks routinely handled by the firm's support staff and legal teams, including the docketing and calendaring process. While not often viewed as a strategic asset within all law firms, calendaring and docketing is one of the key, core functions performed by the firm for its legal teams and clients.
