Technology
We use the most updated Technology
Because we act on behalf of clients, and make use of experts and
witnesses who come from all parts of the country and the world, it is vital
that we employ the latest electronic technology, to ensure that matters are
finalised in the quickest, most cost effective and convenient manner to all.
We are committed to being one of the most technologically advanced
Law firms in the country.
Apart from our computers and equipment being the most updated, we
have various other electronic aides that ensure that our clients receive the
most cost effective and efficient service, and all of which will be very rarely
found in many law offices in South Africa.
These include:
-
an Electronic
Law Library - enter a keyword, and it finds the relevant case for you!
-
Voice Recognition
Dictation systems - speak and it types!
-
electronic links
directly to the Deeds and Companies offices
-

lost interest - we pay immediately and directly into accounts
-

delays
-

Website - all you need to
know, without the hassle and cost of

-
e-mail
communication
Our computer and word processing programs are the latest
available.
We also make use of Palm handheld computing technology
Our Third Party Department makes extensive use of both digital
cameras, traditional cameras, and scanners. This enables us to send and receive photographs and documents
to experts, clients and the like, all over the world, and give/receive speedy
instructions and comments, where this would have taken weeks and months if
normal courier/postage systems were being used, as many attorneys still rely
on.
It often happens that we require a certain document to be sent to
various parties for their information and comment (the opposing attorney, their
numerous experts, our other experts, the client, witnesses). Without electronic mail, this would have
entailed time delays and costs in obtaining the document, photocopying it, and
then posting/collecting it.
Because all of our experts have similar facilities, we can,
at the touch of a button, transmit the document to every person in a
millisecond - this time saving equates to hundreds of thousands of rands to our
clients, in interest alone.
