If you have the correct tools, improving your legal processes for better results will be quicker.<\/p>\n<p>Of the many possibilities of applying visualizations, we\u2019ve chosen to focus on three main ways you can use visualization in your law firm; to inform and educate your clients, to optimize your internal processes and to prepare for litigation. Following we\u2019ve listed a few visual techniques that you can use in each of these areas.<\/p>\n<h3>Explaining Processes to Your Clients<\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to explaining, showing really does more justice than describing, especially to a client who might be agitated or in distress.<\/p>\n<h4>Flowcharts\/ Process Maps to Outline Legal Processes<\/h4>\n<p>When a client first engages a law firm for a case, they may expect a straightforward process to get to a judgment. However, there might be quite a few steps you need your client to be aware of. A <a href=\"\/lp\/flowchart-software\">flowchart<\/a> that lists down the steps of the trial process can help you prepare your client for what\u2019s to expect rather easily.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16041\" style=\"width: 990px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/creately-start?tempID=jkm4rvfj3&amp;utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16041\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16041\" src=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Contested-Divorce-Process-Flowchart-1.png\" alt=\"Contested Divorce Process Flowchart \" width=\"980\" height=\"1380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Contested-Divorce-Process-Flowchart-1.png 980w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Contested-Divorce-Process-Flowchart-1-213x300.png 213w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Contested-Divorce-Process-Flowchart-1-727x1024.png 727w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-16041\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/diagram\/example\/jkm4rvfj3\/Contested+Divorce+Process+Flowchart?utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Contested Divorce Process Flowchart Template<\/a> (Click on the template to edit online)<\/p><\/div>\n<h4>Accident Reconstruction Diagrams<\/h4>\n<p>A great way to revisit how a traffic crash occurred with your client is through an accident reconstruction diagram. While they help identify causes behind a collision, it\u2019s the best way to clearly document your client\u2019s claim.<\/p>\n<p>A few tips you need to remember when drawing an accident reconstruction diagram are<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Add all the traffic signals and the speed limits<\/li>\n<li>Mention the street names<\/li>\n<li>Add text boxes and explain the reactive actions of the involved drivers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div id=\"attachment_16038\" style=\"width: 965px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/creately-start?tempID=jkm4rvfj2&amp;utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16038\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16038\" src=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Accident-Reconstruction-Diagram-.png\" alt=\"Accident Reconstruction Diagram\" width=\"955\" height=\"1150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Accident-Reconstruction-Diagram-.png 955w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Accident-Reconstruction-Diagram--249x300.png 249w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Accident-Reconstruction-Diagram--850x1024.png 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 955px) 100vw, 955px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-16038\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/diagram\/example\/jkm4rvfj2\/Accident+Reconstruction+Diagram+?utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Accident Reconstruction Diagram Template<\/a> (Click on the template to edit online)<\/p><\/div>\n<h4>Flowcharts for Estate Planning<\/h4>\n<p>Another scenario that is quite confusing when defined in a legal contract as text is estate planning and wills. Your client may have several estate planning options. Wouldn\u2019t it be easier, if you can just show him\/ her they are with the use of a flowchart like the one below?<\/p>\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/diagram\/example\/jkm4rvfj6\/Estate%20Planning\">estate planning flowchart<\/a> would basically explain who will receive your client\u2019s properties after they die and when they will receive it. It will give them a quick overview of what can happen and help them come up with a carefully considered plan.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16039\" style=\"width: 1435px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/creately-start?tempID=jkm4rvfj6&amp;utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16039\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16039\" src=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Estate-Planning.png\" alt=\"Estate Planning Flowchart \" width=\"1425\" height=\"1140\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Estate-Planning.png 1425w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Estate-Planning-300x240.png 300w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Estate-Planning-1024x819.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1425px) 100vw, 1425px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-16039\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/diagram\/example\/jkm4rvfj6\/Estate+Planning?utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Estate Planning Flowchart Template<\/a> (Click on the template to edit online)<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Optimizing Internal Processes<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/blog\/diagrams\/process-improvement-methodologies\/\">Improving your internal processes<\/a> is key to delivering high-quality work and remaining profitable. Visualization techniques are a great way to analyze what\u2019s actually slowing down your progress and identify areas for improvement.<\/p>\n<h4>Process Maps to Outline Legal Procedures<\/h4>\n<p>The field of law is home to many processes that are both simple and complex. If there\u2019s a quick overview or a synopsis of the process steps, it can help anyone who wants to refer to it. The ideal tool for the job is a Flowchart or <a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/blog\/diagrams\/process-mapping-guide\/\">process map<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Not only that of legal procedures, but you can use process maps to map out the internal processes in your law firm. It\u2019s a great way to identify bottlenecks and blockers that may be slowing down your productivity and come up with a process improvement plan.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16040\" style=\"width: 1090px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/creately-start?tempID=jkm4rvfj5&amp;utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16040\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16040\" src=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Criminal-Case-Process-.png\" alt=\"Criminal Case Process Map \" width=\"1080\" height=\"1250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Criminal-Case-Process-.png 1080w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Criminal-Case-Process--259x300.png 259w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-Criminal-Case-Process--885x1024.png 885w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-16040\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/diagram\/example\/jkm4rvfj5\/Criminal+Case+Process+?utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Criminal Case Process Map Template<\/a> (Click on the template to edit online)<\/p><\/div>\n<h4>Diagrams to Highlight Duties of Assistants\/ Paralegals<\/h4>\n<p>Each individual in your legal team has a duty to do and how efficient they are in performing that will have a significant impact on the success of your law firm. An effective way to make sure that everyone\u2019s on the right path is to get them to track their work using a diagram that lists their duties like the one below.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip:<\/strong> You can use it as a guide to train new assistants and help them get hold of the internal processes. Along with it, you can hand them an <a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/blog\/diagrams\/org-chart-with-pictures\/\">org chart<\/a> of your law firm that visualizes the reporting structure and the hierarchy among the employees.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_16048\" style=\"width: 780px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/creately-start?tempID=jkm4rvfj9&amp;utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16048\" class=\"size-full wp-image-16048\" src=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-General-Duties-of-a-Paralegal-Flow-Diagram-.png\" alt=\"General Duties of a Paralegal Flow Diagram\" width=\"770\" height=\"895\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-General-Duties-of-a-Paralegal-Flow-Diagram-.png 770w, https:\/\/d3n817fwly711g.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/2018\/08\/New-General-Duties-of-a-Paralegal-Flow-Diagram--258x300.png 258w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 770px) 100vw, 770px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-16048\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/creately.com\/diagram\/example\/jkm4rvfj9\/General+Duties+of+a+Paralegal+Flow+Diagram+?utm_source=legalprocess&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_campaign=diagusage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">General Duties of a Paralegal Diagram<\/a> (Click on the template to edit online)<\/p><\/div>\n<h3>Preparing for a Court Hearing or Trial<\/h3>\n<p>As a lawyer, there\u2019s much to do when it comes to preparing for a court trial.
