Amicus Attorney Is In The Cloud

Amicus Attorney is one of the stalwarts of law practice management software ("PMS").  A cloud based version of the product has recently been released.

Amicus going to the cloud could be a good thing, and it could be a bad thing.  Undoubtedly Amicus Attorney will eventually become a cloud only platform.  If you are an Amicus user, or thinking about adopting Amicus keep this in mind.

The new product does require Microsoft exchange for email processing, which could big a big step up for small firms; and some reviewers report that the conversion process can be daunting.  For the most part though the reviews of the Amicus cloud platform are most positive.

Amicus Attorney is created and sold by Gavel & Gown software.  GG has done lots of great things in the PMS biz.  It's transition to the cloud is a big deal.  Over at the Legal Loudspeaker blog there is a great review of the new cloud platform.  Please click here for a visit.  Of course there is also plenty of additional info at the Amicus Attorney website.

Yes, its good to know the technology is improving. The North Carolina State Bar is one of the first in the country to weigh in on the use of cloud-based practice management. In 2011 Formal Ethics Opinion 6, the bar ruled that a lawyer may contract with a vendor of software as a service, or Saas, provided that the lawyer uses reasonable care to safeguard confidential client information.

The technology needed to have a compliant system is not elaborate – all you need in the way of hardware are a tablet PC, iPad and smartphone, and we use each of these tools at different times for various reasons. The software we have chosen may not suit all law firms’ needs, but the system described in the following paragraphs has served us well.
