Event and Calendar Management

Workgroup Scheduling

Schedule an event for a group of staff members and it appears on each member's calendar. Group Scheduling is dynamic - change the members of a group and AbacusLaw will update everyone's calendar.

Create Rules in Calendaring

Each jurisdiction has its own requirements, court rules, and deadlines for calendar events. You can create your own rules and AbacusLaw will take the trigger event you specify and schedule all related events for you. Create your own rules, or purchase Federal, state or local rules from Abacus.
