ProMIS

their assignments efficiently and to ensure proper billing and productivity
analysis.
In a Legal Consultancy firm, the time spent by the Lawyers on each case plays a
crucial role in determining the overall profitability. This is because the
available time is limited and billing will depend on that. ProMIS provides the
necessary tools to monitor the time spent by lawyers on cases and generate MIS
reports accordingly.

details, owners and other officials, essential Business Information etc.

Clients can be allotted to individual lawyers who will be responsible for the
overall liaison with the client. If the lawyer assigned to the client is
changed, system will provide a history of such changes. Client allotment helps
to generate Lawyer wise Client Aging reports.

pre-defined groups, fees type, lumpsum value, confirmation date etc. Cases can
be allotted to individual lawyers.

administrative dept. can monitor the timesheets posted to server. The finance
dept. can invoice the clients based on the timesheets.
