The non-litigation work, run in the same system.
Advisory, transactions, retainers and projects move through named stages and milestones, with the same assistant, documents and reminders as the litigation.
Most of your practice isn’t litigation.
Corporate advisory, conveyancing, due diligence, retainers and ongoing client projects do not run on trigger dates, so a litigation tool has nowhere to put them. An engagement is organised around stages and milestones instead.
Shaped by the work.
Any practice area
Your firm defines the fields, stages, milestones and checklist for each kind of work, or asks the assistant to propose them.
Stages and milestones
Progress is tracked through stages toward milestones, the way advisory and transactional work moves.
Milestone reminders
The same escalating reminders used for court deadlines, pointed at the milestones.
One calendar for everything
Engagement milestones sit beside litigation deadlines in the one calendar the firm watches.
Everything else comes with it
The assistant, the vault, drafting and Skills work on an engagement as they do on a matter.
How an engagement is run.
- 01
Shape the engagement
Define its stages, milestones and checklist, or ask the assistant to propose them for that kind of work.
- 02
Work it like any matter
Parties, documents, drafting and the assistant are attached to it as they are to a matter.
- 03
Milestones keep the pace
Reminders escalate as each milestone nears, and every date lands in the firm calendar.
One app for the whole practice.
Litigation and everything else
Matters and engagements are two ways of organising work in one system, each with the structure its work needs.
The same supervised assistant
Draft and organise on an engagement with the assistant that works on the court matters, under the same approval.
Built for the Ugandan practice mix
Incorporations, name changes, tax filings, regulatory work and advisory retainers each have a shape of their own, and an engagement takes it.
“Is this just a task list?”
No. An engagement carries parties, documents, drafting and reminders, and the assistant works on it, which a task list does not do.
“Do engagements get court deadlines?”
No. Court procedure, trigger-date deadlines and ECCMIS belong to litigation matters. Engagements use stages and milestones.
Works with the rest of PractoCore.
