About
About

Established in 1984, Barack Ferrazzano Kirschbaum & Nagelberg LLP (BFKN)  is an esteemed law firm known for its high-quality and efficient legal services. Based in Chicago, Illinois, BFKN serves a diverse clientele that ranges from startups to Fortune 50 companies. The distinguished law firm has clients from the Midwest U.S., Europe and Asia.

Problem
Problem

As a well-established law firm with a legacy of operations, BFKN faced significant hurdles in inefficiency and collaboration. The firm relied heavily on disconnected systems, primarily an access database, which hindered efficiency and collaboration. The limited availability of engineering resources and the complexity of integrating disparate systems posed challenges to innovation and operational improvement. The firm required a robust technological ecosystem for a unified approach to operations.

Solution
Solution

To address these challenges, BFKN sought a platform that could unify its disconnected systems. The platform has to equip the team to build custom applications with minimal coding expertise. ToolJet emerged as the ideal solution, offering an intuitive interface and robust integration capabilities. The head of the department recognized the potential of ToolJet to revolutionise the firm's operations. Continuous support from ToolJet’s team, ease of use, pre-built integrations, and clear product roadmap ensure smooth transition and future adaptability.

With ToolJet, BFKN created 5 critical apps for improving the firm’s operations.

  • Matter Management App: The app enhanced the firm’s ability to manage legal cases by centralising matter information.
  • Timekeeping App:  The app optimises the firm’s time tracking and reporting capabilities. 
  • Document Management App: The app improves document handling and access, making it easier for team members to work together on legal documents.
  • Expense Reporting App: The app automates expense management and financial reporting 
  • Client Portal App: The app enhances client communication and service by providing secure access to case information and documents.
