Did you use project management software?
Well, you should. It will keep you and your team to focus to what necessary to be done, or to communicate among your team.
Todays, it’s easy to find great project management software. Well just say Basecamp, goplan, unfuddle, many others. They give you free account to try their services.
Wait, you need project management software for your big project and you don’t have any money?
No problem. Take a look at Trac, Redmine and others. Well, with some struggle to install, you can use it for free.
Hmm..
Now, what? Well, I like commercial project management software because mostly they offer you more beautiful interface, and more easy to use. Trac is powerful but for me it’s just not as user friendly as the commercial one.
Then try Open Atrium.
What is Open Atrium?
Open Atrium is project management software, open source, and created using Drupal. So, installing Atrium is very similar to installing Drupal

I don’t know If I said it already but …Excellent site, keep up the good work. I read a lot of blogs on a daily basis and for the most part, people lack substance but, I just wanted to make a quick comment to say I’m glad I found your blog. Thanks, :)
A definite great read..Tony Brown
I think that project management software would help law practices operate more effectively in terms of client time keeping, task management and budget control. However you need to develop a process in order to be able to do this rather than considering which software to use.
