Affinity Library practice management system, addressing the need for legal professionals to improve performance reporting and workflow efficiency.
?Lexis Affinity Library version 3.0 is an example of the LexisNexis commitment to helping customers achieve better business outcomes. Ongoing feedback from customers was used to create the advanced tools to help minimise risk, gain key insights and make informed decisions,? said Chris Cook, director of Practice Management, LexisNexis Pacific.
The new version was developed from a series of customer advisory boards and in collaboration with practice managers, who helped scope and recommend key software requirements needed to run a legal business, improve day-to-day operations and increase profitability.
