Boundaries are blurred more than ever with the conversion to remote work during the pandemic. But the good news is you can take control.
Client portals are an underutilized tool in practice management software. Instead of fielding phone calls, answering voicemails, streams of e-mail chains, etc., setting communication boundaries and expectations of client portal communication upfront and in writing does several things to save you time and trouble:
1. Communications including sensitive identifying information are more secure.
2. Attorney organization improved – client file with all communication in one place.
3. Managing client expectations of communications improves attorney well being and decreases wasted hours.
