Background

During a period of rapid growth, one law firm found its current legal management solution, Centerbase, could no longer keep up. This resulted in inefficiencies and frustration across the firm. After encountering slow performance, unreliable reporting, and unresponsive customer support, the firm knew it needed to find a solution it could count on. After researching and evaluating a number of solutions, the firm selected the SurePoint Legal Management System (LMS). In this case study, we’ll explore the transformative impact of this decision on the firm’s overall efficiency, client intake processes, financial reporting, and profitability.

Implementing LMS has been a game changer for our firm. We went from weeks of client intake to just days. Our litigation team is busier than ever. It’s the best position we’ve ever been in, and we attribute it to SurePoint.”

SurePoint Offers Scalable Solutions for Sustainable Growth

As the firm grew, it found that it was quickly outgrowing Centerbase. Despite the initial user-friendliness of the software, the firm’s users found that many tools and reports failed to deliver as promised, with critical reports consistently malfunctioning, leading to other inefficiencies and affecting the firm’s workflows and overall performance.


The firm attempted to address these issues with Centerbase but encountered prolonged periods of unresponsiveness and inadequate support. It was clear the firm needed to find a new solution to provide reliable reporting and promote its growth.


The committee researched potential software solutions, leveraging online reviews and legal industry peers to identify top contenders. After consolidating their findings, they narrowed down their options to four. This collaborative approach ensured thorough evaluation and alignment with the firm’s specific needs and objectives. SurePoint was the clear winner, providing the firm with a solution to their reporting needs.
