Press Release Summary: New case management software a big hit for successful law
outfit

Press Release Body: As a start-up operation, Farley Dwek LLP was faced with a common
problem. The law firm specialising in personal injury claims needed a good case
management software system - in order to attain the case levels required for
profitability; going over-budget on IT equipment and services would compromise
spending on other important activities like marketing and business development.

Enter AquariumClaims, the SaaS (software as a service) claims management software
that eliminates the use of expensive hardware, supporting software and allied
services. Another advantage of AquariumClaims which perfectly suited the
requirements of Farley Dwek was the weekly pay-as-you-go model.

Aquarium Software implemented its case management software in three phases for
Farley Dwek. First, over 300 supporting documents were entered into the system. The
details of a specific case could be generated at the touch of a button; then, for
each type of case, a workflow process management system tuned exactly to Farley
Dwek's needs was put in place to ensure all documents went out in the appropriate
sequence, data was captured in the correct format and cases progressed within
required timescales. Automated alerts flagged cases at risk of falling behind
schedule. Finally, a series of on-demand and automatically generated reports
provided the partners with key management information on currently active cases and
the performance of each fee-earner.

Farley Dwek LLP reaped a number of benefits as a result of using Aquarium's claims
management software. IT costs were kept to a minimum, since no specialised IT
department, hardware or additional software was required. Routine maintenance was
carried out by Aquarium, and product customisation was easily handled by the user.
Also, the simple step-by-step process enabled new users to get up to speed quickly,
while tool flexibility allowed power users to tailor the system to their needs.

All this resulted in increased profits for Farley Dwek. The intelligent workflow
meant that a higher number of cases were processed more efficiently. In addition,
management reporting flagged any concerns, facilitating swift remedial action.

Jonathan Dwek said: "We looked at other software in the marketplace, but we liked
AquariumClaims the best, particularly the idea of being able to control and
manipulate the system according to our needs. The fact that no IT department was
required, which is very expensive, was another advantage. It's relatively
inexpensive, simple, quick, efficient, and most importantly flexible to our exact
needs. AquariumClaims allows us total control of cases and documents and saves
hugely on cost."

Farley Dwek has been using the system for six months, doing the majority of their
own document creation, printing and archiving electronically. As a result, Farley
Dwek has already increased its case load.

"There are no hidden extras, it can be tailored to our needs, and has management
reporting systems which are very important to us. Plus, I don't have to wait for
things to get done. If I want to send a letter, I can create it myself and send it.
It's all internet-based, so there are no hardware hassles. I can access any document
I want, at any stage of the process, at any time of the day, from anywhere in the
world. And, there's even a support team at AquariumClaims helping us to make changes
for no extra charge," adds Jonathan.

AquariumClaims is designed to be quick to set up and its cost is highly competitive
compared to traditional software. Aquarium also offers an innovative pay-per-usage
model. Because AquariumClaims uses the latest web-based technology, it can give
users a powerful solution at a cost that traditional software providers cannot
match.

Aquarium has set up a "60 second" online test which allows claims companies to
compare their current processes with state-of-the-art claims processing using
AquariumClaims. The test is free and confidential, and the results are emailed back
immediately to the user. Interested claims managers can take the AquariumClaims
online test at www.aquariumclaims.com.
