Description: Electronic filing with courts and agencies is no longer
experimental -- it is the standard in nearly every jurisdiction. But
how do you efficiently capture all this new material in your enterprise
content management systems? If you don't do it right, your electronic
matter record could be incomplete, or you may perpetuate inefficient
processes designed for a bygone era. Learn how two firms tackled these
challenges by improving their document management system (DMS)
integration with electronic court systems, developing standardized
workflows to track and store ECF content, and promoting user adoption of
the new processes.Speakers:Sean Monahan, the Conflicts Counsel at Foster Pepper
PLLC, advises the firm on legal ethics and related compliance matters.
An attorney licensed in Washington, he also manages the conflicts and
