Neudesic, Fireman And Company, And Handshake Software Partner To Rollout Next Generation Intranet For Am Law 20 Law Firm

IRVINE, Calif., Aug. 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Neudesic today announced that The Firm Directory – the leading people-based experience discovery system for law firms and legal departments – played an integral expertise component in the innovative solution delivered in partnership with Fireman & Company and Handshake Software for a new Microsoft SharePoint-based intranet solution for a top 20 law firm, as ranked by the monthly law magazine, The American Lawyer (Am Law).

The new solution migrates and modernizes the firm's legacy Lotus Notes applications to deliver a dynamic attorney, client and matter-centric portal, developed under the thought leadership of Fireman & Company and leveraging The Firm Directory's people experience discovery platform, and Handshake Software's Portal Solution, creating a next generation SharePoint intranet experience.

"We are excited about the solution that Neudesic, together with Fireman & Company and Handshake Software, completed for this market-leading law firm," said Ramin Vosough, vice president of Neudesic. "One of our primary goals was to deliver the firm's new people experience discovery solution smoothly and in record time by working closely with our partners."

"This project was business-critical for our client - we were replacing and improving a core part of their attorneys' daily workflow," said Joshua Fireman, founder and president of Fireman & Company. "The CIO's request was frank, that Fireman & Company and the partners had to work as a single unit. I'm proud that this project succeeded through great project management and industry-leading thought leadership, design, and technology."

"This project showcased how three separate organizations can partner together to accomplish a common goal and deliver for the client," said Glenn LaForce, executive vice president and chief strategy officer at Handshake Software. "The firm put its trust in Handshake Software and its partners on this strategic project, and we all delivered."
