Tools For A Remote Workforce

Team Litify

The world is shifting, and more business is being done outside the confines of a traditional office. The legal industry has been slow to adopt a work-from-home mentality, but as technology continues to revolutionize business possibilities, companies are faced with decisions on how they operate in both the short-term and long-term.

Law firms are highly collaborative and depend on multiple departments to efficiently run and carry out casework, which can seem daunting to replicate in a remote work environment. It requires a variety of tools and applications specifically designed for areas such as productivity, marketing, communication, billing, and more. Is your firm equipped to make the jump to a remote workforce when necessary?

Here’s our list of the top mobile apps and software for lawyers and legal professionals that will change the way you do business today, tomorrow, and forever.
