New functionality streamlines and encourages teamwork between in-house teams and outside counsel for improved outcomes
HOUSTON, April 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- SimpleLegal (an Onit company), the industry leader in easy-to-learn and implement e-Billing and matter management software, announces the launch of its vendor collaboration feature within its matter and spend management solution.
The initial phase of SimpleLegal's bi-directional vendor collaboration allows in-house teams and outside counsel to easily share and collaborate on vital legal documents and files, with all information stored in a single, secure place.
