Automatic Folder Creation

Whenever you add a new contact or open up a new matter the system will reach out to your Google Drive and create folders for you on your behalf, so you don't have to go and do that manually. When viewing the record in Lolly, there will be a tab titled [Documents]. This view will display a table that lists the files and folders for this record in your cloud storage. 


Available Actions

When working in the [Documents] tab, there are controls located in the upper right of the table. These options include:

  1. Document Automation - launches a wizard to create custom documents and populate them with data from the system. Need to generate a cover letter with the client's name and address? Document Automation can help.

  2. Jump to Folder - opens a new tab and takes you straight to the specific folder for this contact/matter in your cloud storage. Saves you time since you do not have to go searching for that folder or clicking through a directory of folders to get to where you want to go.

  3. Upload - opens a popup that allows you to select a file from your computer or drag and drop multiple files to upload to your cloud storage

  4. Create New Folder - creates a new subfolder in this directory in your cloud storage

  5. Fix Folder - creates a brand new folder and links it to this contact/matter record

  6. Sync with Cloud Storage - communicates with your cloud storage provider to pick up any changes that have occurred outside of Lolly and displays the latest files and data onscreen

Conclusion By following these instructions, you can efficiently integrate Google Drive with your LollyLaw account to better manage your legal documents and files. For further assistance or inquiries, please contact our support team.
