NB! BACKUP THE SYSTEM OFTEN
LAWTOOLS PRECEDENTS - Designed and written by a lawyer for lawyers
BACKUP THE SYSTEM OFTEN
Lawyers are very busy. As years pass lawyers accumulate precedents.
These precedents usually are preciously guarded and stay in the
lawyer's section. The precedents contain valuable stored experience.
This precedent system does three important things:
The precedents stay with their lawyer.
The lawyer can find his own precedents fast.
All the lawyers have access to each other's precedents.
Getting started is very easy:
Each lawyer gets his precedents together and puts them in a ring
binder file.
The lawyer's secretary numbers each precedent using the initials
of the lawyer eg PAB followed by 4 digits (start at 1
eg PAB1002
The lawyer then dictates information about each precedent and the
secretary types it into the database.

This is the reference number of the
precedent.
In the offices there may be piles of
precedents. Put the precedents in a
ring binder file in each office and
number them. The 1st three letters
are the initials of the person who has the
precedents. Always use 3 initials eg PAB
If the person has only 2 initials add
X eg JB becomes JBX
Start numbering at 1
Some precedents may be in the Library
-use LIB for the first three letters
