Additional resources for law departments interested in document assembly

Simon Lewis of Sinch Software was kind enough to e-mail me with several informative comments about document assembly (See my post of Jan. 28, 2007 on Marc Lauritsen and several packages he describes.). “GhostFill can now be added to the list of non-survivors having been withdrawn from general availability as a standalone document assembly program.”

Lewis continues: “Amazingly, I can point to four other “newish” document assembly packages from Australia alone not on Marc’s list, which are doing well both here and internationally, in their respective niches:

Informs
Wisdom Precedent
I-Deal Docs
Intelledox

Their strengths range from ease of use for Informs, to SharePoint enhancement with Wisdom Precedent. The only positive aspect of the general withdrawal of GhostFill is that its former North American CEO, and document assembly pioneer, Doug Simpson is now available for consulting, and is working on some interesting tools to enhance HotDocs.”
