Beyond the Basics: Meeting the Unique Demands of a Growing Practice
Challenge 1: Increase the Scale Without Reducing Its Quality
It is worth noting that due to the growing popularity of his practice, Adv. Kakkad was confronted with the challenge of dealing with complex and numerous cases with higher client expectations. The risk? Losing the personal touch and precision that were the hallmarks of his work.
Solution 1: Enhancing Case Growth with Personalized Causelists
Provakil’s Case Management software provides personalized causelists, instant order and listing alerts, and a centralized digital repository containing all case details readily available at a glance.
• Adv. Kakkad’s firm is now empowered to handle a 45% increase in caseload seamlessly without any additional staff addition.
• Automated task assignments and client updates ensure no detail gets overlooked, preserving the commitment to high-quality service while maintaining the personal touch that clients value.
Challenge 2: Simplifying Financial Tracking with Accuracy
Manual invoicing and expense management is tedious, error-prone, and lacks visibility. This makes financial tracking difficult, often leads to billing delays and irregularities, and hinders long-term decisionmaking.
Solution 2: Seamless Team & Task Management with Provakil
Provakil’s custom invoicing and expense management deliver an unparalleled advantage:
• An 85% reduction in invoicing time meant more time for strategic case planning. This was achieved through professional, pre-designed invoice templates, automated calculations, and seamless expense logging, which eliminated manual errors and streamlined the entire process.
• Clear and detailed financial reports ensured clients had complete visibility into billing and expenses. With Provakil, law firms can effortlessly track paid, scheduled, and outstanding invoices. At the same time, client-wise and case-wise reports offer a comprehensive overview of the firm’s revenue and growth trends. This transparency has led to a 65% increase in positive client feedback, strengthening trust and improving financial decision-making.
Challenge 3: Organizing Messy Schedules & Overlapping Engagements
While effective in the past, traditional methods of coordinating courtroom engagements lack the precision needed in today’s fast-paced legal environment. With cases in multiple forums across India, overlapping schedules, and tight deadlines, it became difficult for Adv. Kakkad’s team to manage their hearings, tasks, client meetings, and other work, leading to missed opportunities and delayed timelines.
Solution 3: Improving Schedule Management with Smart Integrations
Provakil’s Display Board and smart scheduling tools have enhanced how Adv. Kakkad’s team manage their courtroom engagements:
• Adv. Kakkad's team can view live updates from the Display Board, keeping track of all ongoing hearings. The team can easily follow case listings and courtroom movements, making operations smooth and efficient.
• The team eliminated scheduling errors by combining all events, including hearings, client appointments, and deadlines, into one unified calendar. Provakil’s Google Calendar and Drive integration saved them up to 45 hours a week.
Challenge 4: Managing Case Work Beyond the Office
The on-the-go nature of legal practice made it challenging to keep up with sudden updates and urgent casework when away from the office. This often led to reactive rather than proactive case management.
Solution 4: Empowering Remote Work with 24/7 Work Accessibility
With Provakil’s iOS & Android app, accessible to all operating browsers and devices (mobile, laptop, and tablet), Adv. Kakkad now carries all his work in his pocket!
• Remote work productivity in his team has increased by 65% due to instant case status updates and deadline reminders.
• Whether at home or in the courtroom, Adv. Kakkad stays ahead of the game, with instant access to case documents during urgent meetings and ensuring he remains in sync with his team.
Provakil has made a huge difference in my practice. It feels like an extra set of hands that helps me with all the tedious processes that earlier took up too much of my team’s crucial time. It has helped us increase our billable hours and gives us a clear view of all the ongoing cases. If you are looking for a safe, secure, and easy-to-use software, then you should definitely try Provakil.
