Effective Records Management in Law Firms Topic of Pitney Bowes White Paper

A well-documented and enforced records management program adds
consistency, compliance and structure to the enormous volumes of
records and media created and received in law firms on a daily
basis, according to a new white paper available from the legal
solutions division of Pitney Bowes Management Services (PBMS), a
wholly owned subsidiary of Pitney Bowes Inc. (NYSE: PBI).
The white paper, “Law Firm Records Management,” points
out that the records management (RM) solution in law firms has
become much broader and more complex, and not only needs to address
traditional records questions (what exists, where it is and how to
get it), but must also focus on new regulations, huge volumes, and
the expanded variety of records types, integration, media, and
formats that exist throughout the record’s lifecycle.
“Today’s law firm is a hybrid environment of hard copy and
electronic records as it attempts to migrate to a reduced paper
environment over time. An effective records management program
therefore, must keep pace with changing technology and an increased
reliance on electronic records, while recognizing that managing
paper records is still a major component of the RM operation and
will continue to be so for years to come,” notes Dave Hutchinson,
president, Pitney Bowes Legal Solutions (PBLS).
The white paper addresses areas such as:
- Records management
techniques
- Problems and concerns
- Costs associated with records
management
- RM program objectives
- Key components of the RM
solution
- An RM solution development
roadmap
- Deliverables and benefits
