Microsoft Teams has become a lawyers’ go-to tool for collaboration, but many law firms are using the tool in its native form, without effective governance controls in place and without having the platform optimized for the legal sector.
Intapp Workspaces is a powerful extension to Microsoft Teams, expanding the platform into a personalized collaboration tool for law firms for both internal and external use. With auto-provisioned workspaces, templates, streamlined lifecycle management, and document management system integration, users can intuitively and efficiently collaborate on complex legal matters.
Benefits
Enable a modern way of working
Lawyers can use matter-centric workspaces and collaboration tools to access, organize, and share matter-related content. The platform integrates with popular document management systems and offers Microsoft Power BI Reports and co-authoring for improved productivity.
Reduce risk and manage confidentiality
A law firm’s reputation is everything, so keeping client data safe is paramount. Intapp offers automated ethical wall enforcement, seamless Intapp Intake integration, secure Microsoft Teams management, and a content connector for document management systems.
Exceed client expectations
Clients are demanding more. You can update them more easily and efficiently with a single, intuitive interface for accessing and managing matter information across different systems and platforms. You can also avoid endless email chains by chatting and sharing files of any size with clients in your own Microsoft Teams tenant in a secure shared channel.
