Software as a Service

"Web Services" refers to the web infrastructure upon which legal digital applications, from Rapidocs® to web-enabled expert systems, are delivered to consumers.

DirectLaw has developed a web infrastructure that facilitates e-commerce in the legal industry and the delivery of smart legal forms services over the Internet.

The My Legal Affairs™ Home Page: Each client of DirectLaw member firm web sites is able to access their own, individual and secure "My Legal Affairs" home page. This client space organizes the various applications that the customer/client purchases. It enables them to store completed information and completed legal forms on a secure server. The page also has a section for personalized legal links, a calendar for important legal dates, and a web-enabled case manager. These concepts are described in more detail below. For corporate intranets and large law firms, we can install our entire technology on your own servers as part of an enterprise-wide solution.

FAQs Legal Advice Engine: Epoq has created a Frequently Ask Questions (FAQ's) database engine that enable the customer/client to search for frequently asked legal questions. The administration of this engine is completely web-enabled. Authors can create questions and answers from any location. Workflow is built-in for approval of questions and answers before they are published. When the customer cannot find an answer to a question, he/she can fill out a form that transfers the question to a support team. The support team can either answer the question directly if only "legal information" is requested, or transfer the question to a lawyer for a "legal advice" answer. The Engine is fully e-commerce enabled so that customers/clients can be charged by credit card for answers to either "legal information" or "legal advice" questions.
