Opus 2 LEX meets the challenges of lockdown

Michelle Smith

Clifford Strong from Thomas More Chambers explains how Opus 2 LEX has helped manage lockdown challenges.

Working in lockdown has become a new normal for many people. Opus 2 LEX has stepped up to the mark, ensuring that our clients can continue to work smart and work anywhere.

Clifford Strong, Senior Criminal Clerk at Thomas More Chambers in London is one of many legal professionals who has adapted to a different way of working.

“Opus 2 LEX has always been an excellent product but it has shown its strengths during the challenging times of lockdown”, he said. “A major advantage of Opus 2 LEX has been that it gives users the ability to work on any device and from anywhere. This has been invaluable over the past few months.”“The new Learning Centre’s videos and webinars are an extra, valuable resource to explain how to take full advantage of all the features of Opus 2 LEX. The ‘Reporting’ feature is fantastic, fast and reliable. The new ‘Opus 2 LEX Tasks’ is brilliant for helping to prioritise, delegate and keep track of daily tasks. It also helps me to manage my team efficiently, especially when working away from chambers.”

Managing Director, Helen Ford is aware of the changes to a very traditional working environment.

“We are proud that Opus 2 LEX has been able to continue to provide reliable, high quality service during this time. We have taken thousands of calls, from more than 280 chambers, progressed several chambers migration projects, amended workflow to email documents rather than print and put several new features in place. Whatever the future direction of working, Opus 2 LEX will be there to meet the challenges whilst maintaining traditional standards.”
