It is very important if you get phone calls and make decisions on a file to document that by writing a note and putting it on the file by date. You want to file letters, faxes and e-mails received and sent chronologically. No longer do we have our “own” filing system, but our files should be recognizable to all who need to read them.

  We do a lot of work with different clients to help them develop systems that allow them to be paperless.    Start with something like electronic faxes.    We use a service that allows a person to fax to a phone number, but rather than a physical fax coming out on our end, it lands in our email in-boxes.
