Why integrate?
Stop chasing paper and missing billable hours. This integration solves the three biggest pain points for legal administrative teams: revenue leakage, security, and wasted time.
Secure & Compliant
Documents are scanned immediately into the Actionstep matter, removing the security risk of "scan-to-email" leaving sensitive files in inboxes.
Recover Costs
Ensure every single print, copy, and fax is billed to the client. Synced transactions provide a perfect audit trail for billing.
Automate Workflows
Eliminate end-of-month reconciliation. Transactions sync daily, giving fee earners more time for client work and less time on admin.
