Introduction

This is the process for scanning documents into our system, then labeling the documents. Putting them into our filing system , which is in Dropbox, and then taking those items to share them with the clients through Clio.

Labeling and transferring the documents

1

Name the document with the date first. (YYYY_MM_DD) eg. 2016_03_21
2

The date of the document must be the date relevant, not the date the file was scanned.

1

After the date, add an underscore followed by the client's name.
2

Put a dash and type in the case name.

eg. 2016_03_21_HART-Engagement Agreement
