Information Technology at Margolis Edelstein
Margolis Edelstein keeps pace with its clients’ innovations, including on-line reporting and billing, panel counsel extranets, and other digital applications, to name but a few. This allows the firm to integrate key communication functions with its clients in a seamless and timely fashion. Improved decision making protocols and increased efficiency lead to better quality legal service at a lower price.

We are mindful of the risks inherent in electronic commerce and communications, particularly in light of the confidential nature of our client relationships. We are, therefore, duly cautious in these applications. Our IT Department works in close contact with our clients and vendors to maintain and secure data.

The Harmonie Group
A valuable asset to the firm and its clients has been our charter membership in an international network of defense counsel, The Harmonie Group, which is linked via the Internet enabling members to communicate candidly and confidentially regarding expert witnesses and other defense resources throughout the United States and Canada. We also enjoy a relationship with the Canadian Litigation Counsel (CLC), a network of 10 Canadian based firms with similar practices, as well as a burgeoning European based network of law firms.
