| Sumario: | Part of a special section on law office technology. The writer presents the findings of a survey conducted by Trial in which 25 members of the Association of Trial Lawyers of America responded to questions about the types of software and technology they use. She explains that the respondents were questioned about the software they employ for the specific tasks of case management, docket management, litigation support, financial management and time and billing, spreadsheets, graphics and form production, and word processing or desktop publishing. She notes that the respondents were asked about other office technology, such CD-ROMs, scanners, and fax machines. She argues that the influence of the Internet was pervasive, with almost all the respondents using it for research and e-mail, although the majority did not have Web sites.
