Technology

It is not possible to deliver the level of service that today's clients expect without the use of modern technology.

Our firm was an earlier adopter of PC technology becoming one of the first law firms in Canterbury to have a PC on every desk and a website to promote our firm's objectives.

We have and continue to use the latest in computer, scanning, photocopying, printing, document storage and software to ensure that our systems are robust and our client's information is readily available and secure.

We helped to develop and introduce computerised diary systems well before Microsoft Outlook was standard and today we use a comprehensive Critical Task Management System that it is at the leading edge of anything available globally to law firms to manage the key dates and events for our clients.

As one of the largest property law firms in the South Island we were one of a handful of firms invited to test pilot Land Information New Zealand's" Landonline" software - a world first in enabling lawyers to transfer the ownership of land and discharge and register mortgages directly from our computers in cyberspace.

We see technology as a means of providing greater information and responsiveness to clients and greater enjoyment and productivity to our staff through better processing of the routine parts of legal practice.

We see it as our role in the legal community in Canterbury to continue to be at the forefront of legal technological innovation and change.
