What is a file?

Organize your work under files. A file can be any group of activities you wish to keep track of together in Amicus Attorney by CARET, typically a client matter but also any sort of project (such as moving to new premises).

• On each file you can associate one or more contacts (and assign their role on the file) and, on an ongoing basis, all your related appointments, tasks, email, phone calls, time entries, expenses, notes, and documents. A file may even include custom fields of your design.

• If you are the Amicus Attorney by CARET administrator, or a billing user or supervisor, you can also associate bills (and invoices), payments, and trust.

• Assign a file to yourself only (private), to a user group, or to all users. This controls who can access the file (together with its associated items).
