Case Study: Lewis Rice boosts attorney productivity and client service with OpenText eDOCS

Lewis Rice supports industry excellence with OpenText Document Management

Lewis Rice LLC, a national Midwestern law firm with about 130 attorneys and 140 support staff, faced an explosion of information alongside regulatory and business pressures that threatened productivity and client service. The firm needed a reliable, matter-centric system to maintain a single source of truth, enforce version control, and ensure secure, organized access to documents and emails.

Lewis Rice implemented OpenText eDOCS Document Management (with Email Filing and SharePoint integration) to centralize more than 19 million documents, provide fast web and desktop search, automate synchronization, and control versioning and access. The result was improved attorney productivity and client service, stronger compliance and discovery capabilities, reduced risk of overwrites, and measurable gains in efficiency and profitability.
