Litera One + SharePoint Integration: Unify Your Legal Knowledge
For IT leaders in the legal sector, managing knowledge and securing document access are top priorities. SharePoint is a cornerstone for 60% of law firms, yet the inefficiency caused by switching between platforms leads to lost billable hours and security risks. Firms often struggle with disjointed processes for accessing and managing knowledge stored in SharePoint.
The Litera One and SharePoint integration creates a unified platform for legal professionals to seamlessly access, compare, and draft documents. This powerful connection eliminates workflow fragmentation, enhances security, and unlocks institutional knowledge by keeping lawyers within their native Microsoft 365 environment.
This new, direct integration unifies the legal tech landscape. It empowers firms to maximize their technology investments and turn passive repositories into active workflow engines.
Bridging the Gap Between Knowledge and Action
Legal professionals have long navigated a fragmented workflow that slows down productivity and introduces risk. The process of searching for documents in SharePoint, downloading them, and moving them into a drafting environment creates friction that prevents firms from fully leveraging their institutional knowledge.
The Litera One and SharePoint integration solves this problem. It provides a single, cohesive environment designed to drive efficiency and reduce IT overhead.
