Corporate Legal

Corporate legal departments everywhere are being asked to do more with less. You need solutions that help you take control of your time, your data, and your costs.

These modular applications deliver high individual value, and are also highly integrated to produce a leveraged effect that allows you to elevate your decision making based on information from your entire enterprise.

We Understand Your Challenges

At Bridgeway Software we understand the challenges corporate legal departments face – and how to meet them. We've been serving in-house counsel and corporate governance professionals for more than two decades. That experience has given us unparalleled insight into what real-world needs you have and how we can help you.

• We understand that you're being asked to reduce costs and become more efficient, while maintaining a high level of service to your organization.
• We understand that you need a way to manage the wide variety of matter types your organization handles with the specific data you want to track for each matter.
• We understand that you have an obligation to preserve documents and other evidence and ensure that you are protected from sanctions.
• We understand that you want to perform early case assessments with tools that can analyze all your electronically stored information (ESI) and intelligently cull it to reduce runaway e-discovery costs.
  
• We understand that you need your solution integrated with your other enterprise systems such as e-mail, calendar, document management, enterprise portal, human resource, accounts payable, intellectual property management, claims management,  risk management, and others.
• We understand that you want to collaborate with your outside counsel to share documents and receive budgets, status reports, and accrual information. You also have invoices coming in every month that you want electronically audited and routed for approval so your staff can more easily review and then approve or reject. When there are problems with an invoice you want your system to seamlessly communicate the issues to your law firm to eliminate the wasted time going back and forth.
• We understand that legal spend management doesn't just mean managing outside counsel costs, but includes e-discovery costs, IP foreign agent costs, internal resources costs, and other costs.
  
• We understand that you need all of this information collected and presented in a way that will make your life easier, and give you a way to document and report what is going on in your legal group.
