    Amicus Attorney can probably be deployed very well in a law office that has a manager specifically dedicated to making it run smoothly, and who can keep track of the contacts, etc. In our firm, no one can spend the time to do this, so the information stored by Amicus gets a little disorganized, which has the effect of slowing us down

    • Case management including contacts, emails, documents, etc. to keep everything in one consolidated place.
    • Document automation including Word merging or HotDocs (third party). Take case data including custom pages and fields and instantly create documents based on templates with ease.

    • Partner channel doesn't really exist anymore
    • Support of the product is extremely poor
    • License agreement states you can only run it in their data center (not Azure or AWS, really Amicus?)

    In the time that I have been with my firm, we have not used any other comparable software. As a result I can't compare it to anything else that is out there

    • Cloud hosting has enabled an offsite backup of our library inventory.

    • Large software investment, if not properly configured and utilized this can be a time and money vacuum.
    • If law firm does not have a consistent personality among employees, buy-in may be difficult as it's a significant workflow change for users.
    • Can greatly benefit law firm if used properly and across board for all employees. Uniform data organization for cases and custom pages add to personalizing software for firm.
