CMS Portals
Most every modern case management system includes a client portal or app. Most firms accept it as good enough. The firms on this panel didn't.
In this session we're sitting down with law firm leaders who looked at the included portal, weighed the free (or bundled) option, and chose to invest in a premium client experience platform in lieu of it. They run firms across different practice areas: personal injury, employment, estate, probate. Their back offices run the best Case Management solutions out there: SmartAdvocate, Filevine, Clio, and CasePeer. What they share is a conviction that the hiring decision isn't won on billboards or radio spots. It's won in the reviews their last client left and the referrals their happiest clients make.

We're asking the questions every managing partner should be asking:
Why did you decide the included portal wasn't enough?
Why did you decides to invest significant funds?
What return are you actually seeing on the investment?
What do you see happening inside your firm that firms without this tool simply can't see?
How does a premium client experience translate into real competitive advantage?
This isn't a session for every law firm. It's for the firms that already know reputation is the most valuable asset they own, and who are serious about protecting and growing it. If that's you, this hour is worth your time.
