West Group, which has formed a new business unit to concentrate on this initiative, will launch Westworks TM later this year. West Group's strength in technology and customer and technical service is the gold standard in the legal industry. It is designed to dovetail seamlessly with the attorney's workflow, streamlining and simplifying the full range of tasks that they encounter every day. For instance the minute an attorney begins work on a particular case or client file, the time and billing application will automatically start logging billable hours. The goal is to develop a product that is so useful, so time and cost efficient and so easy to use, practitioners will scratch their heads wondering why they used to have to work so hard.
Practitioners know our product, and they trust it.
We are committed to provide West Group the IBM e-business technology and services to make Westworks a successful application service provider for the legal industry. This initiative is part of our strategy to work with technology providers to deliver e-business solutions. Westworks continues West Group's aggressive development of Web-centric tools and services for the legal market. The company offers a wide range of products and services designed to empower people through great software - any time, any place and on any device. The company was established in Los Angeles in 1999, and its first service offering, Timesolv, was released in January 2000.
