Some legal practices may consist of just an attorney and a legal secretary, but most will likely have many, many more people on staff.  In any case, a legal administrator has numerous duties from financial oversight to human resources.  A seemingly small area is keeping track of employees’ time and their attendance, but in reality this can be a huge burden for an administrator.  Are the employees at work?  Are they on vacation?  Did they clock in on time?  Did they take a long lunch?  Tracking time is a key business function, but is often difficult to manage.

The work environment for an admin in today’s legal offices seems to require getting more done in less time and going in more directions.  You must review plan benefits, employee files, balance business expenses and process payroll.  At the end of the day, your to-do list hasn’t gotten shorter, but has already spilled over into tomorrow.  Maybe it’s time to use technology to solve those workforce management issues and take control of your day.
