PERSONAL
INJURY
CASE MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE:
FRANCKEL & ASSOCIATES has been using SAGA since 1992 and was chosen only
after Philip L. Franckel, Esq. reviewed, over the period of one year, all
available software at that time. SAGA was the only program that was
very easy to learn to use without reading the manual; very easy to modify
it's template documents or create new ones; very easy to memorize merge codes
for creating new template documents (for instance, the merge code for the
defense attorney's telephone number is
<<DEF-ATTY-PHONE>>); very easy to generate finished documents
& the only program that could create a Bill of Particulars which it does
easily (the only typing is for the injury paragraph which I dictate with
Dragon Naturally Speaking-see here below). In addition to letters,
Summonses & Complaints, Discovery Demands, and authorizations, SAGA
will automatically create and fill in any needed form with all necessary
data, such as Retainer Statements, No-Fault Applications, Police Report Requests,
MV104s (accident reports) and other forms just by pressing the enter button
on your keyboard. Don't want to have your client's telephone number
appear on a No-Fault application generated by SAGA? No problem!
It takes just 20 seconds to pull up the template form in your favorite word
processor, delete the merge code (PL-PHONE) for the client's telephone number
and save it. Service from SAGA has been excellent and they have been
very receptive to my suggestions, incorporating, in their last DOS version, at
least 30-40 suggestions which I sent to them.
Update: I just bought SAGA Practice Manager for Windows which
is now installed in my office. It's by far, the best personal injury
software available. It's power and capability is simply amazing.
Some attorneys have told me that they were looking at another program
for $1,500 less, but it's not worth saving the money. Since a very
small case will pay the difference and Uncle Sam will pay a third of that,
the small savings a cheaper program can offer will cost you tens of thousands
or more, if it's not saving you as much time as SAGA will save. SAGA
will only have to save me two hours of work to make the difference, but it
will save many hundreds of hours by providing more information, more capability,
and being more logical and easier to use (and to learn how to use), than
the other programs. I first started with SAGA when I had 25 cases and
was at the limit I could handle alone without a secretary. After entering
all the data for my cases, I was able to take on more cases until I reached
about 130 cases. Unfortunately, SAGA still doesn't answer the phone or the
calendar call at court and I have started hiring attorneys, but still do
not have a secretary or paralegal. I will further update this review
after I have started using the windows version. I recently attended
the first of five 3 hour classes on using SAGA. The class was very
beneficial, particularly since the new windows version does so much more
than the DOS version I will definitely attend all of the classes so
I learn how to get the most out of SAGA. I owe my law degree to Gilberts
and my practice to SAGA! To maximize office efficiency and earnings,
I strongly advise attorneys to attend the classes as well as their support
staff.
(for plaintiff or defense
attorneys) a case management
& document assembly software package for lawyers practicing in all areas
of law, including but not limited to Personal Injury, Medical Malpractice,
General Negligence, Litigation, Real Estate, Matrimonial, Business Transactions,
Criminal, and Collections. SAGA started as a DOS based personal injury case
management & document assembly software package. The new SAGA Practice
Manager™ is an incredibly sophisticated 32 bit windows application using
the Microsoft SQL database engine that is light years ahead of it's previous
DOS version, which I thought did almost everything. The new SAGA Practice
Manager™ has a real nice calendar system which you can easily
customize and which is totally interactive. I never used the calendar
system in the DOS version because I didn't like it. Now I will definitely
use it. There are now over 125 reports and the ability to customize
your own queries. You can also view all case data in many different
ways and can customize this as well. If you're running a network, the
administrator can allow every user to customize the look of the program to
their own needs. If you want to see the program, as customized for
you, on another computer other than your own, just log in on your user name
and it changes to your preferences. Every area of the program has been
substantially improved; there are many new features and it is now interactive
with other programs. This is a full featured practice management program
for the large law office which can also be used by small offices and the
sole practitioner. SAGA has enabled me to triple my 100% personal injury
case load without adding employees. If anyone is in the neighborhood
(Roslyn, LI, NY) and would like to see how SAGA works in my office, I will
be happy to make an appointment, just send me an email at

I always wanted software that can easily create a professional looking time line! I create
time lines of medical treatment whenever I mediate or arbitrate a case.
The judges always want to know what treatment was received and when. In
the past I did a timeline on WordPerfect and included it in my mediation and
arbitration binders, but I wanted software that made it
easier to create and more professional looking. I also wanted a more professional
looking chart that can be used as a large exhibit. Making timelines on
WordPerfect, has been a huge help at mediations and arbitrations, but now, I can do it easier and better.
Besides, medical treatment history timelines, TimeMap can also be used to create time lines to visualize an accident sequence
or case history and more. TimeMap makes it easy to create
chronology visuals with "fact boxes" floating over a horizontal time
scale. See also, CaseMap below. Call Jenee at 904-273-5000 ext. 247 and tell her that

Casesoft, the makers of TimeMap also make CaseMap which makes it
easy to organize and explore the facts, characters and issues of a case.
CaseMap is integrated with TimeMap so the facts can be instantly charted on a
time line. According to Casesoft, all 93 UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS' OFFICES ARE
STANDARDIZING ON CASEMAP AND TIMEMAP. The USAO has purchased 15,000
CaseMap/TimeMap license sets. Many other divisions of the US DOJ have also
procured Enterprise Licenses, e.g., the Antitrust Division, the ENRD, and the
Tax Division. Order your free demo of TimeMap today and let me know what you think.

- Software
that specializes in 3-D computer graphics of human anatomy with color graphics
that are remarkable for their clarity and precision. I just received
the Interactive Knee which is absolutely amazing. It shows the knee
at various depths in various types of images such as 3d Model Mode; Topic
Mode with views for Anatomy, Surgery, Biomechanics & Radiology; and MRI
Mode. There are movies such as one which shows a doctor conducting
a McMurray's test. The view or movie is on the left side of the screen with
corresponding text on the subject, on the right. Everything is interactive
and changes to correlate with the word you click on. This is a fabulous program
for the medical profession or the personal injury attorney. While it would
be interesting for a lay person with a knee injury, it is easier to use with
a basic understanding of the knee and would require the lay person to spend
some time learning. I highly recommend this software. Primal Pictures,
Ltd can be reached at 1-800-716-2475.

Anyone in
New York State or any state in which doctors do not provide Whole Body Impairment
Ratings should be aware that there is an additional problem both with the
software and the call in evaluation which is that a Whole Body Impairment
Rating is needed by the software and New York State does not use Whole Body
Impairment Ratings. Without inputting a Whole Body Impairment Rating,
the evaluation will be even lower and unrealistic. Additionally, the software
does not discern enough information to provide a realistic value. Admittedly,
it would be very difficult to discern all variants in a case, since not all
information is always reported by attorneys. Instead of using software
or ordering a case evaluation, you could consider ordering copies of actual
verdicts. While JVR tracks verdicts nationally, I order NYS verdicts from
The New York Jury Verdict Reporter by Moran Publishing at 631-581-1930.
