Sharing Practice Information

If there are several people in your firm using Amicus Attorney, you can see and work with other people's practice information, and permit others to do the same with yours.

Information is stored in a central database, which is maintained by your designated Amicus Administrators. This allows for fully integrated information sharing among the people in your department or firm. Most of this information sharing is accomplished invisibly—you don't need to choose any special menu commands or even think about what is taking place.

There are different ways this information sharing works, depending on who you are working with. The following topics are covered:

Using a record at the same time as someone else
How Amicus Attorney Access Control works—an overview
Granting permission for someone else to access your Amicus Office under a Guest Assistant or Guest Colleague Security Profile
Accessing someone else's Office
Setting record Restrictions
Sharing information with Clients via the Client Portal

A special function allows you to check on the current availability of all Firm Members.
