Corporate Key Personnel have their own application within LAWTRAC.


The purpose is to allow them access to certain matter records so they can keep up with the progress of matters themselves without calling or emailing the legal department.


Access to matter records can only be granted by legal department personnel. They can be associated to matters and be blocked from seeing the matter information too.


Automatic access to matter records can also be established depending on the department he or she works for.


Key personnel can set their own preferences [A] as well as adjust their contact information. They can get the contact [B] information for individuals in the legal department.


They can review the corporate structure you've established in the application [C], view matter information [D] even have access to some reports [E] which you have granted access.


Employing the key personnel application can save your department man hours as well as bring corporate officers and others a little closer to the day-to-day activities of the legal department.

The drag-n-drop tool for uploading documents into the LAWTRAC document bank is a powerful tool you won't find in any other matter management application.


The tool is an interactive Java applet that requires the free Java Platform be installed on your computer.


Many times this is already installed, but if you need to obtain it or want to make sure you have the most recent version you can download it from Sun/Oracle.

A fine example of how the LAWTRAC application is constantly working to keep your matter data in alignment can be found in the lower left hand corner of the main matter screen.


Even as you adjust legal and business hierarchy settings or add invoices, adjust reserves or budgets the application is working to make sure that corresponding data is maintained.

Things like total amounts lifetime and year to date, categories on associated documents, even more is always going on in the background.
