Case Study: Elkington and Fife achieves faster, paper-light filing and lower storage costs with EzeScan

Law firm Elkington and Fife create online filing system with EzeScan!

Elkington and Fife, a UK intellectual property law firm, sought to drive efficiencies and find significant cost-savings within their operations. One of their biggest challenges was the immense cost of physical file storage, an estimated £40,000 annual outlay, which was a drain on resources that could be better invested elsewhere. The firm approached vendor EzeScan for a solution to digitize its extensive paper-based files.

EzeScan provided a document digitization solution, integrating a high-resolution scanner and software into the firm's IT infrastructure. This allowed Elkington and Fife to destroy their physical stockpile and instantly scan new documents directly into their system. The results were substantial: the firm saved £20,000 in under a year, achieved a 70% digitization rate, and enabled remote work. EzeScan’s technology also streamlined filing and searching processes, saving an enormous amount of time and translating into a higher quality, more competitive service for clients.
