Time Matters...

Is it me or is summer just flying by....
I feel like it's Monday and then boom it's Sunday and I can't keep track anymore.

Anyways...

This week I learned how to use Time matters. Time Matters is a LexisNexis software program mostly used for legal research purposes.

I was excited when we began working with the program, because I was developing a new skill, something different. Plus, it gets to look good on my resume when put "Familiar with LexisNexis" next to the usual Microsoft word, and excel skills.

I used time matters to create case files for our clients. The files includes information such as the clients name, date of birth, how many people they live with, the date the case was opened, when it closed, the Attorney that represented the client, a safe number for PWJC to reach the client, the respondent/abuser's name, date of birth and any other important information about the Client. This files are needed so that we keep track of the client's cases, for future purposes. It also makes it easier and safer to keep them in a database system on the computer so that there aren't bunch of files laying around in boxes.

So far it's been fun creating this files, and reading up on the clients. I actually enjoy the process. However, I am looking forward to next week, because we are going back to court!!! But this time we are going to the one in Yonkers, so I cannot wait for another great experience at court! :)

Hopefully I get to sit in on an interesting case. Fingers crossed!
