As the team has been growing, they were looking for a way to systematize their policies and procedures.
“We were looking for a way to systematize our policies and our procedures. Everyone had different things in different places and there really was no uniform way of working. We were looking for a knowledge-based system where we could put everything in one place so that it was easier to access and everyone knew where to go to find information.”
The team at Posternock Apell had the following requirements:
✅ To find a standardized way of working
✅ To ensure that team members were able to access information through a search function
✅ To be more efficient in sharing their specialist policies and processes.
The firm is growing and with the team building their business practices and estate planning practices, they’re bringing in more specialist attorneys who require more knowledge.
As a result of implementing Whale, team members don’t have to spend time answering questions and new hires can simply find the information they need on Whale.
Once the team learned that they could search with a word, it became game changer because it really made it so easy.
Our new team members love it! There is a database of sample, motions or letters that they can just quickly take and use for their work. So that helps them learn the new maybe area of law for a paralegal or an attorney if they’re not familiar with it.
“A knowledge-based system is not really intuitive for a lot of law firms they don’t really know what to do with it or how to use it, and so I would highly recommend this to a lot of law firms, especially if you have multiple practice areas, it’s a really great way to put all of your motions or pleadings or letters in one place so that the whole firm is using Standardized work product.”
