Law firms in the US are moving to paperless offices as digitization has more perceivable benefits. These firms are appreciating the value of legal scanning such as quick and improved access to information, reduced storage space in comparison to hard copies and a sure fire disaster recovery method.

Uses of Scanning Legal Documents

Resource Management: Legal documents scanning services ensures that files can be shared both internally and externally with clients, in real time. Because of its ability to be stored and emailed electronically, cost and time is cut down considerably as otherwise document sharing would require physical visits to be undertaken. Couriering or mailing documents is equally cumbersome, time consuming and expensive.

Disaster Recovery: Legal scanning ensures continuity of operations even if disaster like a fire strikes. Scanned documents can be backup copies of vital records and there is the assurance that this information is always available. Scanning also ensures adherence to regulatory laws as and compliance with Federal Records Management regulations.

Safe management of old documents: It is also likely that legal offices often deal with ancient documents which may include fragile paper records. These records are of vital importance but are vulnerable to age related damage. Digitizing these documents ensures that the original versions are stored for posterity.

Security for important documents: Often, legal documents can contain key evidence which might require audits, and be available for discovery demands and enquiries. Many of these documents are extremely time sensitive. Digital records ensure that store and search is much simpler and provides for a professional work atmosphere for all concerned.

Infrastructure Management: Legal offices require a large amount of space to be dedicated to storing paper files. Real estate space in premium localities is very expensive and most of this is probably being used up by files and old documents which cannot be destroyed or thrown away. With legal documents scanning, one can ensure that space is freed up for more comfortable working quarters.

    What Our Client Says

    •   I contacted eRecords for a small-scale scanning job. Although they usually work on large projects, Pankaj was more than willing to help with what I was looking for! The scans that came back were high quality, and delivered in a timely matter. eRecords was also the business that quoted me the most competitive price. I would definitely recommend - Pankaj is knowledgable and a great collaborator to work with on meeting any scanning service you may need.

    •   I have used eRecordsUSA on three separate occasions and each job was performed exceptionally. All files scanned at high resolution, organized, and returned in a timely manner. Pricing was also very reasonable for such time-intensive work. Management was also very good with their communication.

      I am a digital nomad that owns zero paper, so having all of my files in Google Drive is imperative. With Google's OCR (Optical Coherence Recognition) I can now find my files at lightning speed. ie - I search for [deed], [roof repair], [assessment], etc. and all relevant files "automagically" appear.

    •   EXCELLENT quality work. VERY professional. I had some kids art work scanned high resolution that was too large for the scanners at copy shops. eRecordsUSA did a fantastic job and I highly recommend them.

    •   Erecords scanned 56 bankers boxes of legal case files and other professional documents for me. This was a particularly difficult and complex job because, in naming files, they had to work from both a written file inventory and the file names on the folders themselves and use a consistent file naming protocol that Erecords and I agreed upon. They did an outstanding job of following this file naming protocol and organizing the documents in digital form to create the file structure that I intended. This job was also difficult because of the variety of page sizes and the age and condition of some of the documents; they managed to accurately capture everything. They also made the job easier for me by picking the documents up at my home. Pankaj at E records was invariably courteous and helpful and spent the time needed with me before the job to develop a digital file structure to make the documents most useful. I highly recommend Erecords for document scanning.

    •   I chose eRecords to scan over 2000 pages of yearbooks and several hundred photos from the early 90's to early 00's. I was not disappointed. They were one of the few locations in the Bay Area that I contacted that let me drop off and pickup the material in person. The JPG and PDF scans that they sent me were extremely high quality and OCR'd the yearbooks so I can search for text. They were able to repair one of my yearbook's bindings to the point where I couldn't even find the repair! This place is professional and good value for what I received. If something ever happened to my irreplaceable yearbooks and photos I know they're digitized now and backed up to multiple locations on my network and cloud! Highly recommended, Pankaj and eRecords!

    •   I found eRecordsUSA on an internet search and contacted them to inquire about scanning to PDFs a set of some six hundred old, faded, tattered pages of an underground/community newspaper I co-founded fifty years ago.  I lucked out on this first call, finding a most professional, efficient, accessible, top notch company to help me archive my newspaper despite these trying, pandemic times.

    •   eRecordsUSA did a wonderful job scanning a large, irreplaceable, almost 100-year-old original opera. After checking with the State Library and other printers, we learned that eRecordsUSA was the company that could handle our job. The owner understood the job's importance to us and did the job quickly and professionally.

    •   Very impressed. Wow. They scanned an old picture for me today, and I can't believe the details they were able to "pull out" of the picture. It's over 60 years old and I am in awe of how this looks. Amazing. Thank you to everyone at eRecords!
