Duane Morris LLP, a law firm with more than 700 attorneys in offices across the United States and internationally, has chosen HighQ Collaborate for its client services solution. The firm was seeking a flexible solution to its client extranet needs.

Emmerich Buziak, Duane Morris's Practice Support Project Manager  said: "My CIO asked me to take a look at HighQ, and I was really impressed with the product. Collaborate had all of the core functionality that we were familiar with, but presented the features in a clean, intuitive interface.  Collaborate also included many additional features, which gave us the flexibility to support many different practice areas across the Firm.”  Emmerich went on to say, “We really liked HighQ's forward thinking approach. It's important for us to support attorneys on the go, and HighQ Collaborate makes this possible.

The platform is cross browser compatible and mobile optimisation was built into the roadmap, which was particularly attractive for us. We've made good use of this feature now that it has been launched.  At the end of the day, we were looking for a solution that is future-proof, that keeps up with changes in technology, and HighQ offers just that. They held our hand throughout the transition and have always been responsive to our requests for enhancements. We're happy we chose them." explained Emmerich.

Michael Worth, VP North America HighQ said: "We're extremely pleased that Duane Morris have selected HighQ Collaborate for their client services. They have been using client extranets for many years and immediately saw the added value Collaborate offers.  It has been a pleasure to support them with the transition of their solutions and we're excited to be part of the future of the firm."
