ABSTRACT:
The ABSTRACT of this project is to develop an information system to aid Solicitors in the collection of data relating to the time spent by their employees on the cases currently assigned to the firm. This is primarily related to those employees working off-site so that reports can be generated to determine whether staff is working according to their assigned targets.
EXISTING SYSTEM:
The present system is maintained using traditional approach where all the information is stored in files and ledgers. Searching for required information is tedious. Often the data is mismanaged and this leads to data inconsistencies and losses. It is difficult to track the details of work assigned to each lawyer and review the status of each case.
PROPOSED SYSTEM:
The proposed system is a web based application and maintains a centralized repository of all information related to cases, customers and lawyers. This helps in effective and efficient management of information. The system allows one to quickly view the necessary details and access the information. The system also maintains details of a history of cases, which may help the organization in reviewing the new cases. The system allows the maintenance of worksheets of each lawyer.
MODULES:
The system is proposed to have the following MODULES:
• Administrator module
• lawyer module
Administrator module:
The administrator has all the information about the organization. Administrator can add, delete, edit and view the details of customers and lawyers. Administrator can assign the cases to the lawyers. Administrator can view the details of each case. Administrator can also deal with the payments and fee details of each case. Administrator will maintain information about the worksheet of each lawyer.
Lawyer module:
A lawyer will be registered with the application. A lawyer can access the application and can view the details of cases assigned to one. A lawyer can also assess the time required to be spent on each case and enter the necessary details.
