Legal Desktop operates as an integrated add-in within Microsoft Word, providing legal professionals with a unified workspace for drafting, editing, formatting, and finalizing documents without leaving Word. It is configurable for different firm sizes and can integrate with third-party tools and document management systems.
Key Features and Functions include:
Template & Precedent Integration
A library of standard legal document templates (e.g. agreements, letters, court documents, agendas, notes, memos) is available and can be customized or extended.
Productivity Tools
Built-in micro-tools enhance drafting convenience, such as a “Table tool,” “Insert landscape page,” and “Find square brackets” utilities to assist with formatting and content navigation.
Document Repair & Styling (Brochet Paste)
An accompanying restyling / repair tool (Brochet Paste) is available to recover or realign document formatting when the structure becomes inconsistent.
Print Management Integration
The solution links with Kappris Print to allow users to manage and track printing tasks directly from within the Word environment.
Document Management System Integration
Legal Desktop offers deep integration with iManage (including iManage Work 10) and is also compatible with other DMS platforms, enabling seamless metadata and version control.
Scalable Configuration
For smaller firms, Legal Desktop can be used out of the box with minimal configuration; for larger firms, it supports more detailed customization and alignment with firm preferences.
Document Lifecycle Support
It is positioned as part of a full solution stack in which Legal Desktop handles drafting and editing, while downstream modules (PDF tools, e-sign, print) manage the rest of the delivery chain.
