At bruceb consulting, I specialize in helping law firms stay productive and competitive.

Practicing law increasingly requires you to rely on your PC. I can help solve problems and suggest solutions for all of your needs:

• Setting up and administering a network or intranet
• Internet access and e-mail
• Setting up a Web page
• Word processing
• Legal research - Internet, Westlaw/Lexis, or CD
• Document and case management, 
  including ProLaw, Amicus, Time Matters, and others
• Timekeeping and billing, including Timeslips
• Accounting, including QuickBooks and PCLaw

Computers have become critical to the functioning of every law firm. Even solo practitioners and small firms would be devastated by a crash. But it can be difficult or impossible for a small or medium-sized law firm to stay competitive and take advantage of the services available with a server-based network. It requires specialized knowledge, but a small firm does not have the resources to employ a full-time IT person.

In fact, many small law firms cannot even make good use of the basic features of a peer-to-peer network - file and printer sharing, shared applications, shared Internet access - because there's no one around to set it up and take care of the day-to-day technical issues.

bruceb consulting does network administration and provides help desk services to small and medium-sized law firms. I can keep your network running and keep the attorneys focused on doing their jobs, at a cost that's far less than the hidden cost incurred when they are idled by computer problems. 

Keeping a network running - even a small one - will always require someone's time. Rely on bruceb consulting to solve problems, do routine maintenance, anticipate and prevent problems before they occur, and advise on upgrades and new services.
