Information

Why Attend?

  • Learn how to efficiently batch process electronic communications
  • Get emails out of your inbox and process emails and tasks in a way so that those items never get lost

Featuring nationally recognized speaker, legal technology author, and thought leader Paul Unger

Legal professionals today receive between 100-150 emails or other electronic communication (MS Teams channel, Slack, etc.) a day. Many of these legal emails, including responses to clients, courts, and opposing counsel, contain tasks that must be acted upon. Timely email communication is important in the practice of law, and if not done properly can affect the quality of legal services attorneys provide.

In this interactive webcast seminar, you will learn how to efficiently batch process these electronic communications. You will learn how to get them out of your inbox and process those emails and tasks in a way so that those items never get lost. Attendees will get their hands dirty and focus on how to use Microsoft Outlook and other tools that your organization uses to manage emails.

This program is the second in a 3-part Law Practice Management lunchtime series presented by Paul Unger. The series is designed to provide the legal professional with technology time management tools to help them get and stay organized, not miss deadlines, and be able to spend more time clients. Each session in the series is designed to stand alone, so you can choose to take any or all three of the 1-hour sessions:

Part 1: Time and Distraction Management + Digital Detox—Get Focused! (now available on demand as an Online Seminar) (Click here to purchase)
Part 2: Email Management: Help! My Inbox Is Exploding (Wednesday, June 8) (Click here to register)
Part 3: How to Better Manage Your Workload—Task and Deadline Management (Wednesday, July 13) (Click here to register)
