Attorneys at Law Jussi Laaka Ltd
Challenge
Jussi Laaka, Managing Director of Attorneys at Law Jussi Laaka Ltd, had been looking for a solution that would take care of customer relationship management and financial management of a lawyer's office automatically and in real time. Previously, the firm used a traditional accounting company that worked with printed documents, and the information always lagged a month behind. This delayed information made decision-making difficult as it was not based on real-time data. The secretary had to process information into reports manually, which took a great deal of time. The secretary also had to prepare payment reminders manually and maintain a separate accounts ledger.
For a long time I had been looking for a solution that would take care of the customer relationship management and financial management of a lawyer's office automatically and in real time. I went through several service providers, and the eFina financial management software by Administer, together with the Case software by J&K International, met my demands. Formerly, we had a traditional accounting company that worked with printed documents, and the information always lagged a month behind. Therefore, our decision-making was not based on real-time information. We also had to process the information into reports ourselves, which took a great deal of our secretary's time. The secretary also had to prepare payment reminders manually and maintain a separate accounts ledger. Now, thanks to the integration implemented between Case and eFina, all our sales invoices and other data are entered into our accounting automatically. eFina provides real-time information on financial management, which can be checked even at the breakfast table. All the information is up to date, which makes timely decisions easier. With a push of a button, I can see open purchase invoices, the accounts receivable, transactions, profit and loss accounts and balance sheets. Now our accounts ledger is up to date, which has made the collection of receivables more efficient and easier. When it comes to running the office, this change was like switching from a Yugo to a Porsche. — Jussi Laaka, Managing Director of Attorneys at Law Jussi Laaka Ltd
