MANCHESTER, UK, July 4th 2018.
National law firm Freeths has signed contractsfor the implementation of Sharedo work and case management system across its entire user population.
With a national presence comprising 860 people across 12 UK offices, Freeths prides itself on “doing the right thing” for its clients by thinking differently, building long term trusting relationships and delivering high quality outcomes. Central to this strategy is its investment in leading technology.
First and foremost we, as a firm, handle clients’ matters. Some time ago we started looking for a modern platform that would allow us to ‘manage’ matters in the most effective way. To us this means a number of things.
From a client perspective:
1. making sure that the quality of work and client outcomes are excellent;
2. making sure that we are delivering those outcomes at the most effective price point for the client; and
3. providing transparency to the client at all points in the transaction and providing them with ‘frictionless’ ways of engaging and working with us.
And from an operational view:
1. making sure we are using internal resources effectively, evening out peaks and troughs in our staff utilisation;
2. making sure that junior staffs’ work is supervised effectively; and
3. ensuring standard best practices are deployed firm-wide.
After an extensive selection process the management team unanimously decided that Sharedo was the right platform. It ticked all the business requirement boxes, integrates with the other best-in-class systems we are implementing, uses emerging technologies like Machine Learning and AI, and is adaptive—as our needs change we can easily evolve Sharedo to match these.
As a selection team we felt Sharedo stood head and shoulders above anything else in the market”.
We are excited that Freeths recognise and will fully utilise the adaptive nature of Sharedo to use it for end-to-end case management in those parts of the business that lend themselves to this, and for general matter management across the rest of the firm.”
