Campbell Fitzpatrick Solicitors has signed a three year contract with leading software provider, Advanced Legal to implement its flagship practice and case management system, ILB. The deal sees the 50-strong Belfast and Derry law firm replace its existing accounting system and migrate its case management system to ILB, the platform of choice for forward-thinking, growing law firms.

The move precedes Advanced Legal’s official launch of the system in Northern Ireland later this year. ILB is proving to be the fastest growing practice and case management solution for the UK market.

Campbell Fitzpatrick Solicitors sees the software as a key strategic solution to help grow its core business. ILB will enable the solicitors to meet the needs and expectations of its clients including insurers, banks and the local business community.

Peter Campbell, Managing Partner at Campbell Fitzpatrick, said: “This investment is part of a wider drive to implement new technology across the firm to ensure we are well positioned for the future. We are also introducing MS Exchange 2010 and server upgrades with an RSA two factor authentication security to increase our data security and overall systems security within the practice. 

“It is important for us to feel that our investment is safe for the long-term and to be working with a supplier that will continue to work closely with us and provide a solution that will grow as our firm grows. With Advanced Legal, we are confident we have chosen the right partner.

“We were reassured by Advanced Legal’s commitment to on-going product development and innovation, as well as its plans to add value through integration with market-leading third-party products. We look forward to continuing our long-term association with Advanced Legal.”

Doug Hargrove, Managing Director of Advanced Legal, said: “We are excited to have signed up our first customer in Northern Ireland for ILB. This deal comes ahead of our expected schedule to execute a full launch of the product in Belfast later this year. This launch represents an important part of our strategic plan and we’re pleased at this early indication that firms in Northern Ireland will value ILB in making their businesses more efficient, more marketing aware and ultimately more profitable.”
