Home now from ILTACON, the annual conference of the International Legal Technology Association. It is five frenetic days of seminars, exhibitors and networking by legal technologists and vendors from all over the world. Here are some of my somewhat-random thoughts about the event.
Let’s start with what many were thinking: Orlando in August?…
CosmoLex, the cloud-based practice management application, is today introducing an integration with the cloud document-management platform NetDocuments. The integration will allow its customers to access and interact with client emails and documents stored in NetDocuments from directly within their client matters.
This integration adds NetDocuments to the options available within CosmoLex to integrate…
Last November, the document management company NetDocuments announced that it had acquired Closing Room, a deal-management application developed by the Am Law 200 financial services law firm Chapman and Cutler.
Today, NetDocuments unveiled the fruit of that acquisition, SetBuilder, a new application within the NetDocuments infrastructure that allows legal professionals to…
During my visit to Utah last week, I had the opportunity to visit the Lehi headquarters of NetDocuments and sit down with Alvin Tedjamulia, cofounder and chief technology officer, for a briefing on the company’s road map for 2019.

I’m posting a four-part roundup of those companies. I started Monday with Part 1 and yesterday with Part 2. Here…
The document-management company NetDocuments today named a new CEO, Josh Baxter, who has been president and COO since joining the company last year.
Matt Duncan, who had been CEO since 2014, is stepping into the role of executive chairman, where he will continue to help drive the company’s strategic objectives while also taking…
The legal profession’s move to the cloud has been a slow transition, in large part due to fears about control and security. In no sector has this been more true than among the world’s largest law firms.
It is therefore notable that Hogan Lovells, which The National Law Journal ranked in 2017…
For some time now, I’ve been meaning to write about Centerbase, a relatively new entrant to the law practice management space. Targeted at small- and mid-sized firms, Centerbase is unique for the high degree of configurability available to its users. As its website says, “We make Centerbase’s features conform to your needs, not…
The California investment firm Clearlake Capital Group yesterday announced that it has acquired NetDocuments, the cloud-based document and email management company that specializes in serving law firms and corporate legal departments.
