Problem

Several years ago, leaders at Santomassimo Davis realized the role technology could play in the strategic growth of the firm. At the time, the CRM platform they used was not powerful enough to accomplish their goals. They were dissatisfied with their case management software, because it ran on internal servers, was not being updated by the provider and did not offer an option for mobile work. They also could not connect it with their document management software, a situation that proved to be inefficient and primed for potential errors. They knew that having one system of record – with a powerful marketing engine and integrated case management, accounting, reporting dashboards and more – would fuel growth and set them apart from other law firms.

 

Solution

When the firm started researching new technology, Salesforce and AdvoLogix – which is built on the Salesforce platform – quickly filtered to the top of the list. Salesforce offers powerful marketing tools to help law firms develop new clients, nurture existing clients and reengage past clients. With thousands of integrated apps like AdvoLogix available on the App Exchange, the Salesforce platform has the power to provide all the tools a law firm needs to run its business and grow.

AdvoLogix allows all of a firm’s  team members to have all case information and documents at their fingertips, driving efficiency because they never need to ask others for information or status reports on client matters.

With the addition of Accounting Seed – accounting software also available on Salesforce’s App Exchange – which was integrated by AdvoLogix partner  Practice Development Partners, the leaders at Santomassimo Davis gained reporting and dashboards that help them make agile and data-driven business decisions.

 

Christopher Santomassimo, Partner of Santomassimo Davis LLP:

“AdvoLogix is great for the entire firm. It empowers all our people to be more productive.”

 

Result

AdvoLogix empowers all the legal professionals at Santomassimo Davis LLP to be more productive. Because of the automation, workflows, and integrations, they can focus on value-added and more satisfying projects and less on mundane tasks such as timesheets and data entry. The platform has allowed the firm to grow without increasing support staff.

Because it is cloud-based, AdvoLogix makes the team at Santomassimo Davis LLP more independent. They can work from anywhere in the world and continue to have access to everything they need to keep their practice operating smoothly and their clients happy. Unlike other firms that were not prepared to work from home when the need arose in 2020, Santomassimo Davis offered continuous operations, retained all staff, and experienced growth by bringing on new clients. AdvoLogix put the firm in the perfect position to weather the storm.
