Bloomberg Law Introduces Innovative Dashboard Legal Features
Today, Bloomberg Law unveiled two groundbreaking features for Dashboard Legal, a project management and collaboration solution tailored specifically for legal professionals. These new additions, External Checklists and Outlook Add-In, are designed to streamline tasks, boost efficiency, and enhance the quality of interactions between legal teams and their clients.
Enhancing Communication with External Checklists
The External Checklists feature is a game-changer for legal practitioners. It provides clients with a secure platform where they can easily track important milestones and the status of their legal matters. This functionality minimizes the usual back-and-forth communication, allowing attorneys to allocate more time to tasks that ultimately impact client outcomes. By clearly defining timelines and essential tasks, law firms can engage in more meaningful discussions that focus on strategic initiatives.
Boosting Efficiency with Outlook Add-In
The second key feature, the Dashboard Legal Outlook Add-In, offers a seamless integration that connects Microsoft Outlook with Dashboard Legal. This integration allows attorneys to manage their projects right from their email interface. The intuitive menu enables them to link emails and documents to project tasks, enhancing productivity and ensuring that vital information is readily available. This feature was directly inspired by user feedback, demonstrating Bloomberg Law's commitment to aligning with the needs of legal professionals.
The Vision Behind Dashboard Legal
Dashboard Legal was acquired by Bloomberg Industry Group to reinforce the company's foothold in the legal market. Developed by attorneys for attorneys, this innovative tool simplifies task management, document handling, and team communication. The ultimate goal is to foster a work environment that encourages collaboration and efficiency, empowering attorneys to perform at their highest potential.
According to Bobby Puglia, chief product officer at Bloomberg Industry Group, "With the introduction of Dashboard Legal's External Checklists and Outlook Add-In, Bloomberg Law continues to innovate and enhance the legal workflow experience. These new features streamline processes, driving greater efficiency and productivity by ensuring that legal professionals can maintain clear, real-time visibility into project progress while seamlessly integrating their work with everyday tools.”
