Sharing of information has eliminated the constant reminders and has made the staff more reliant and self-sufficient. Since work is planned per-case-file, a staff member can plan days ahead and even requisition for funds in advance and avoid last minute delays, thus giving them more control of their diaries unsupervised. The lawyers also get early prompts as to the next files they will handle. This gives the more time to prep, talk to witnesses and plan for court
