Williamsons Solicitors kicks off new year and new firm with SOS Connect™
New Somerset firm Williamsons Solicitors has selected SOS Connect™ for its first practice, matter and case management system (http://www.mrw-law.co.uk/ ).
The litigation firm which began operating in December 2009 is specialising in dispute resolution, personal injury and employment law. By taking advantage of technology, integrated case and practice management systems together with digital media, the goal is to provide high quality, streamlined and ‘crisp’ services to clients.
Founding principal Michael Williamson spun-out the new firm from The Stokes Partnership where, as managing partner, he headed up litigation for 11 years: “I welcome the opportunity to start with a blank sheet of paper and in particular to install and develop the technology that I believe will give us an edge in service delivery”, he said, “and SOS Connect™ is a key part of that.”
SOS Connect™ delivers the flexibility, scripting tools and building blocks that Williamsons was looking for, which will enable fee earners to modify and create their own new workflows as required and without delay.
Familiar with SOS from the old firm, Williamsons took advice from IT colleagues and carried out its own research into available software suppliers, before opting for SOS Connect™. Starting afresh with contemporary software is a major advantage in creating efficient processes and managing the business effectively.
Already live on accounts, client and matter management, Williamsons expect to commission the extensive additional features of the new software in the very near future.
David McNamara, managing director of SOS said: “SOS Connect is a powerful tool for helping any new professional firm to manage its business effectively and to maximise performance right from the off. We’d like to wish Williamsons every success in their new venture.”
