For
PR agencies
We are interested in all news stories, product
launches, orders, staff appointments, corporate
news and application stories/case studies that
are of genuine relevance to our readers but, unlike
some other publications, we do not carry any advertorial
or sponsored features. We are happy to receive
press releases via email as, plain text, attached
Word files or PDFs but we do not use photos nor
illustrations. Also, because we are solely news
rather than advertising features driven we do
not publish a conventional 'August special focus
on legal accounts systems' type features list.
Instead, if something is topical, we report it.
One final point to note, as it does cause confusion
from time to time, is we only look at legal IT
from the point of view of the technology lawyers
use, as distinct from the legal issues surrounding
the use of technology generally.

with MS Office
• Previous experience of the solicitors
profession and/or accountancy software would
be advantageous although not essential.
The successful candidate will ideally have
at least 2 years recent development experience
in a commercial environment. Career Progression:
Candidates will need to demonstrate a professional
manner & take pride in all aspects of
their work. Above all, you must have the right
attitude, a desire to work hard and be a team-player.
You must display common sense, real initiative
and the ability to work under pressure to
maintain the high standards expected by our
clients. Our company is soon to embark on
some new and exciting initiatives and we are
looking for someone with genuine aspirations
to be a part of that process. Are you an ambitious
candidate who wants to become an integral
part of our organisation, rather than someone
looking for "just another job"?
Software Support Analyst (Salisbury)
We are also looking for an additional Software
Support Analyst to join our support team.
This is a new role made necessary by a marked
increase in the number of users of our software
over the past 12 months. The successful candidate
will help with providing 1st-line telephone,
remote & email support to our clients.
He/she will also provide assistance to our

systems from 2000 to Win 7
• Extensive knowledge of different MS
Office systems (particularly MS Word &
Excel) 2000 to 2010
Previous experience of bookkeeping within
a support environment would be a distinct
advantage. Knowledge of the solicitors profession

more important that candidates should demonstrate
a professional manner, common sense and an
ability to learn quickly. Above all, you must
have genuine commitment, the right attitude
and a desire to work hard. You must be adaptable
and a team-player. In return, we can offer
a position with genuine prospects.
