Law firms apply telecommunication technologies to simplify faxing

Fax2Mail is an outsourced fax solution that allows lawyers, paralegals and office staff to electronically send, receive, store and print faxes using existing email. It eliminates the time, effort and expense associated with fax servers and fax machines while at the same time providing additional functionality. Fax2Mail allows staff to be more organized and have all information at their fingertips. With the ability to send and receive documents from their desktops, sensitive client information is never misplaced. Each document can then be verified and electronically forwarded to the repository using their email, thereby improving efficiency.

By delivering documents directly to a designated lawyer, client or court Fax2Mail keeps an audit trail of every inbound and outbound delivery. Electronic copies of paper documents, including coversheets, are stored electronically, reducing paper storage costs.

The benefits to this electronic form of faxing are increased organization of client matter files by having disparate documents captured electronically; a more secure delivery system for sensitive client documents; a log of all documents for easy tracking and confirmation; sending documents from a computer eliminates the need to print, collate and fax; inbound “never busy” fax numbers; and no new hardware or software required.

The Columbus Bar has teamed up with Premiere Global Services to offer members aggressive rates and leading technology for faxing and audio and web conferencing services. Call Stephanie Minnich, Premiere Global Services, at 614/447.0771 or visit www.premiereaffinity.com/cba.
