Financial reporting software offers attorneys ease of use in a multi-office environment 

Accola, the Atlanta-based professional services software company, today announced that Fisher & Phillips LLP completed a firm-wide implementation of Dynamic AI. With the adoption of this system, all the firm's attorneys have ready access to management reports, when and how they need them.

Manually-driven statements of financial position and other metrics, formerly available only once a month, are now a thing of the past.  

Fisher & Phillips is a national law firm specializing in all areas of labor and employment law.  They have more than 275 attorneys and 31 offices.  The firm has been using Aderant Expert since the early 1990s to provide for the time-keeping, accounting and billing needs of its growing practice. Last year, Fisher & Phillips began the process of overhauling its management reporting processes and looked for a system that would provide reports on-demand and require little if any supervision by the firm's IT department.

Fisher & Phillips attorneys and staff researched Accola's Dynamic AI software package and realized that it would give them just what they wanted.  The chief attraction of Dynamic AI to the firm was its accessibility and ease of use.  Implementation was complete in a matter of days. Dynamic AI now serves over 300 users at the firm in all of its offices nationwide and generates the financial reports that support the firm's practice management.

“Dynamic AI fits our needs.  The cost is right, it is easy to use and not a lot of training is required. We are very satisfied, especially compared to financial reporting products that are less dynamic,” said Rette Rankin, Controller at Fisher & Phillips.  “Accola's implementation team had just the right level of expertise and has been a continual source of help and advice.  The partners of Fisher & Phillips are very happy with the capabilities of Dynamic AI, and now have access to web-based performance reports, billing and other metrics.”

Fisher & Phillips also utilizes Accola's consulting services to support and modify its existing Aderant Expert accounting system. “The Accola team is very knowledgeable,” said Rankin.  “Their level of responsiveness is fantastic.  They are always up front and honest, especially when it comes to fees, and they have never let me down.”
