Capture your valuable analysis electronically to enhance productivity
Firm Central gives your firm easy access to firm-related and matter-related documents, uploaded directly to the cloud. Document tools, such as notes and highlighting, help you be more productive by keeping your analysis and information together in one place.
NOTE: Recently, individual file upload size has been increased to 150MB and there has been an increase in data storage within Firm Central. You can check your firm’s storage status by accessing the Admin tab, then clicking on Settings & Storage and Storage.
When you open a supported document type in Firm Central (such as Word, WordPerfect, or PDF), it is displayed in a Document Viewer that includes several features to help you be more productive.
In addition to annotations, Firm Central uses indexing technology from Thomson Reuters Westlaw to add KeyCite status flags and links to the full-text documents on Westlaw from the cited authority within the documents you upload.
You need a subscription to Westlaw to access KeyCite and the full text of your cited references; however, status flags will appear alerting you to good law/bad law status, even if you don’t subscribe to Westlaw.
Knowing that your citations are up to date and accurate will give you confidence and peace of mind when you deliver your work product.
