FWBS is the world’s specialist in delivering complete information to legal professionals fast, every time, via a single consistent interface that works within the familiar Microsoft Office environment. Our world class matter and document management solution, Matter Centre, pioneered and continues to pioneer, the matter-centric approach to streamlining and controlling a legal or contract-based environment.

In many organizations today client and transaction related information is typically scattered throughout a firm, forcing professionals to painstakingly activate multiple, disconnected applications: tracking down emails in Microsoft Outlook, finding files in their document management systems, locating finance data in billing systems, and viewing deadlines & activities in a myriad of disconnected systems.

FWBS Matter Centre overcomes these challenges by providing professionals and their support staff with a comprehensive view of their clients, jobs, workloads and all related documents and reference materials, via a single click within Microsoft Office. This central approach supports how professionals actually work by contextually organizing tasks and information around work items, letting them easily view, share, manage, and act on information, seamlessly immersed inside the familiarity of Microsoft Office.
