“By writing and updating Software Quick Reference Cards on money-saving software applications, I have saved my firm over $60,000 in 2007 alone! The software application, “Best Authority,” allows secretaries to generate a Table of Authorities for legal briefs. The time saved per brief is 90-120 minutes- which roughly translates into approximately $57.00 saved per brief! If each secretary produces only 1 brief per month (and many produce dozens), it saves the company over $2,000. In addition to creating the Quick Reference Cards, I also developed the Instructional Outlines for the training classes and scheduled and delivered the majority of the classes firm-wide.”
