Wine & Cheese with CosmoLex

On Wednesday, July 10, 2019, Wolf Law Chambers hosted a Wine & Cheese event at 6 p.m. in its main location at 90 Matheson Blvd W, Suite 101. Without doubt, I can say the event was big success. It was a wonderful turnout, as the boardroom was filled with great people from various backgrounds in law and, surprisingly, other fields of practice (shout out to the chiropractor).

Together, we learned about the importance of practice management products for professions required to manage their accounts, matters, calendars, etc. But more specifically, we discussed the methods for migrating data from one system to another. This was the crux of the matter. Suppose a lawyer has 30 years of experience, but no experience with practice management software. Suppose they thought, “hey, CosmoLex seems great”. How would they migrate the 30 years of data which was once recorded, on paper, and nothing is online?

This is a difficult question. But fortunately, lawyers don’t have to answer this question of how. It is best left to the professionals of data migration. The question more relevant to the lawyer is when to migrate their data. This is where CosmoLex helped our discussions quite effectively and clearly. They have a data migration department, comprised of people who devote their time solely to the migration of data to one practice management system to a practice management software system. The lawyer mainly has to let the team know the appropriate times for migrating their data.

Rick from CosmoLex was succinct in speech and honest in his approach to the main questions facing legal practitioners seeking a management software that works for the practitioner. He emphasized the nature of the software as that of a co-worker who helps administrate a legal practice. This was a particularly interesting analogy that reshaped the way I think about practice management software. Perhaps it might reshape the thoughts of others as well.

Overall, the event was great, the people were great, and the presentation by Rick from CosmoLex was great. Thus, the members of Wolf Law Chambers duly thank those who came to event and made the night great. A great sense of community was felt throughout.

“I had an opportunity to showcase CosmoLex as part of our CloudTech Roadshow at Wolf Law Chambers. I am thoroughly impressed with the facilities of Wolf Law Chambers and more importantly their focus on providing continuous learning and networking opportunities to their members as well as for area law firms. Keep up the great work Dez!” said Rick Kabra, President CosmoLex.

“It was fantastic to see the level of interest in what we are doing here at Wolf Law Chambers”, said Dezso Farkas of Wolf Law Chambers.

“So many lawyers and paralegals practicing on their own would like to be part of a community where they can share ideas and collaborate with other professionals.”
