We receive requests now and then to allow more flexibility for the law firm address that you use on your pleadings or documents. Recently, a new user told me that he was doing a pro bono case in family law and wanted to use the legal service agency as the address for his documents. That got me off my duff, and I’ve since added that functionality to the family law forms. I’ll make this change live later this week in a new form set, once we test it a bit more.

Basically, it will work like this: if you want to add a different address for your law firm or company and don’t want to modify your overall preferences every time, just check off two options on the “Staffing on Matter” screen. Those options, which I’ve circled below in a screenshot from mndocs, allow you to change the law firm name and the law firm or company adddress on the fly, as in whenever you choose to do so on a specific file. It’s good not only if you want to have a different address for a pro bono case but also if you want to fine tune your contact information for a particular file.

A quick note: while it’s not yet live and published, expect it by December 3 for family law forms. We’ll roll out additional practice areas shortly afterward.
