tyco and eversheds win for legal



Tyco and Eversheds - A Win for legal Technology and Law Firm Business

Process

As reported in The Lawyer . com, the Eversheds has grabbed a big chunk

of legal work from Tyco. It sounds like the key to getting the work

was putting an electronic approval process in place. Using their

Global Account Management System (GAMS), which requires the lawyer at

Eversheds to fill out a quick form in GAMS before starting a new

project for Tyco. Then, the general counsel signs-off on the work

before the lawyer starts work.

It looks like integrating the law firm's technology and integrating

the law firm's business process with the client's technology and

business process can get work for law firms. Sounds like a great case

for law firm knowledge management.
