A Abacus Data Systems Case Study
McCready, Garcia & Leet, P.C., a Chicago plaintiff personal injury and workers’ compensation firm founded in 1999, grew rapidly from a solo practice into a multi‑attorney trial firm. As caseloads expanded, founder Michael McCready and his small staff became overwhelmed by client information, deadlines and administrative tasks, creating a need for a scalable case management, timekeeping, billing and accounting solution.
After evaluating options, the firm implemented AbacusLaw for its flexibility and customization—using tailored intake forms, centralized matter screens and dynamic reporting to streamline intake, track calendars, insurance and injury details, and monitor finances. The system helped the firm manage thousands of matters, expand to a five‑attorney practice, and realize significant growth (500%), while improving organization and client service.
