Amicus Attorney 2008 Small Firm Edition and Amicus Accounting 2008 now available

Toronto, ON (September 4, 2007) - Gavel & Gown Software Inc., a leading developer of practice management software for lawyers, announced today the launch of its Amicus 2008 line of software products. The first product, Amicus Attorney 2008 Small Firm Edition, is the latest version of the world’s leading practice management software specifically designed for the solo and small firm market. The second product, Amicus Accounting 2008 is a full-featured, easy-to-use time, billing and accounting package developed for the legal profession.

"We've added significant enhancements to the Amicus 2008 products", said Ron Collins, President of Gavel & Gown. "These are absolutely the best versions of our software ever. There are some big new features, plus lots of small refinements that our customers have been asking for."

Amicus Attorney 2008 Small Firm Edition, built on the popular Amicus V+ platform, includes all the core functionality legal professionals need – Calendar, Files, To-Dos, Contacts, Communications, Time and much more – all in a single integrated database. The 2008 version of the Small Firm Edition features a new navigation pane that provides easy access to any of the Amicus modules, a new Tasks module for managing To Do’s all in one place, real time spell check, Outlook® and email integration enhancements plus much more.

Designed to combine legal billing and accounting into a single program, the standalone Amicus Accounting 2008 can be partnered with Amicus Attorney 2008 Small Firm Edition to provide a total front office - back office solution for law practices. It allows users to keep track of time and expenses, generate bills and write checks, manage receivables and payables plus much more. Other benefits include its full trust accounting and robust reporting features. Highlights of Amicus Accounting 2008 include easier navigation, the ability to change the Client on an existing matter, enhancements to Accounts Receivable interest, billing and reminder statements, a new payroll add-on option and a more powerful receipt function.

"While there's a robust list of new features and functionality in both releases, the key as always is ease of use and natural workflow. It's the way we have implemented these new features that makes the difference," commented Collins.

Amicus Attorney 2008 Small Firm Edition and Amicus Accounting 2008 are both available now through Gavel & Gown Software’s extensive sales channel. The Small Firm Edition is priced at $449 for the first license and $349 for each additional license. Amicus Accounting 2008 is priced at $249 per license.
