These workflows can either simply generate reminders for the diary, or can have specific tasks linked to them such as the generation of particular documents, drawing information from the data fields within the file or the contact details. The workflows and file configurations, as well as the mergeable documents, are amongst the elements that the firm must customise to gain their intended benefit. There are at present no standard modules for this, which can be either a benefit, since all firms have different practices or a hindrance if time is not found to do the necessary groundwork. The concept of proven best practice is, I expect, an area which the user group will be keen to address. New to Amicus IV is a report generating facility which we are yet to explore other than cursorily.

Amicus Attorney is, then, a flexible, effective and good-value product, but one which, in its previous release, had some significant defects which were liable to obstruct full implementation. It is now a cornerstone of our practice, and one which we are comfortable in commending.
