Amicus Attorney is Gavel & Gown Software's time-tested program developed to improve law firm efficiency and profitability and to help legal professionals "get the most out of the time they spend practicing law." Amicus Attorney 7, the company attests, is "the most powerful version of Amicus that we have ever developed. It is absolutely bursting with new enhancements."

: I) M0 F0 p# u( C0 LIn a practice management paper presented at ABA TECHSHOW 2005, [FN2] authors Wells Anderson, David Bilinsky, Dan Pinnington and Natalie Thornwell compared Time Matters to Amicus Attorney. At that time, Amicus Attorney Version V+ had just been released as an upgrade to the traditional Windows line of Amicus Attorney (including the Organizer, Advanced, and Client-Server versions), while Version X was a new version running inside Internet Explorer. In their helpful
& i9 G3 m3 d& s. Vpaper, they dealt with Version V+, since that version was then being used by the majority of Amicus Attorney customers.

A Gavel & Gown spokesman recently observed: "One thing I can tell you is that Version 7 is based on the best aspects of both V+ and X. (It really does have some of both, plus a bunch of new stuff!). The Web integration, for example, is an extension of X, but much of the core functionality begins with V+. The interface, architecture and much of the integration is new as well. So it's really a 'rethinking' of practice management software with the earlier versions as a starting point."


Installation

My experience installing a 30-day trial version of the Premium Edition was easy and without incident, notwithstanding that it was installed to a Virtual PC [FN3] on an external USB-linked hard drive. Although a 15-page Install Guide [FN4] is included with the package, the program itself checked to ensure that the necessary components (e.g., Microsoft .Net Framework 1.1) are available.
