“Enhancing the way you practice law”
A legal framework is not a single application but the interaction of multiple systems and platforms with a common data store. The framework is like the foundation of a building. By itself it does not make up the entire structure. But, it is the key component necessary to build the structure. It is the rock solid footing that keeps the building from crashing down. The legal framework is the foundation on which the portal is built. It provides the base for all application integration and also the engine to enhance existing applications and to build new applications, “modules”.

iCerv is an enterprise level scalable application platform that features seamless integration capabilities and a snap-in architecture for business application development. It allows users to not only see the data but to act on the data. Its design provides the base functionality for building these applications in a stateless web-based environment.

iCerv is setting the standard for legal framework technology.

Customized solution modules can be included with the iCerv framework allowing various un-addressed needs to be met. These modules provide the legal department or law firm with the flexibility to tailor the framework for their specific way of practicing law. For example, the managing partner can combine standard portal services like new feeds, update notifications, client web site clippings and top matter information with financial data, risk management and operational reporting, all within his/her personal web space.

Customized modules include:

• Reports
  
• Client/Contact Management
  
• Financials
  
• Matter Management
  
• Document Management / Library
  
• Time and Billing
  
• Docket and Calendaring

Each module is fine tuned to the way you conduct business and is fully expandable and compatible with other application solutions.

iCerv provides the foundation to support each function by allowing you to build the technology around the way you practice law, not conform the way you practice law to fit the application.
