The central feature of the new version is an email plugin integrating Microsoft Outlook with Juris for easy access to client and matter information and streamlined time entry within Outlook. The announcement comes on the heels of a similar add-in for Microsoft Outlook and Time Matters practice management software announced in December.</p><p>"Most law firm attorneys and timekeepers literally live in email; from discussing matters with clients - to scheduling important deadlines and keeping track of tasks," said Loretta Ruppert, senior director for Law Firm Practice Management at LexisNexis. "This integration with Microsoft Outlook puts the attorney or legal professional in control by giving them access to the information they need without having to leave the very place where they get their work done."</p><p>Research supports the notion that legal professionals and timekeepers are significantly reliant on Microsoft Outlook for managing day-to-day activities. According to the ABA's 2013 Law Technology Survey Report, 82 percent of all law firms use Microsoft Outlook for email and 79.8 percent said they also use it for calendaring.
