Attorney Reviews: Who else uses
Registered E-mail®?
"Registered
E-mail® messages insure integrity, reliability and
authenticity of documents transmitted by and from attorneys,
with the ease of clicking the 'send' button. The LA County
Bar has once again shown leadership by endorsing the Registered
E-mail® service as a tool to reduce cost, simplify
processes, and bring the legal community into conformity
with modern business practices.”
--Judge
Dana Senit Henry (ret.)
"Registered
E-mail service is ideal for documenting settlement discussions.
I also send Registered E-mail messages to clients for
documenting custody and visitation communications. The
'never got it' excuse goes the way of 'the dog ate my
homework.' The exact date and time the e-mail was opened
are now known. When sent with the banner showing, it is
a subtle reminder the e-mail should be taken seriously."
--Mark J. Warfel, Law Offices of Mark J. Warfel.
Arcadia, CA.
“At
Cumberland Ellis we acknowledge that the prolific
growth in the quantity of outbound e-mail, which
includes lawyer to client, lawyer to lawyer, and
lawyer to third party communication, much of which
is important, confidential and time-critical, brings
with it very real client credibility, legislative
and professional liability risks. Recipients can
deny receiving e-mail or dispute exactly when it was
sent or received (no proof of delivery), content can
be tampered with and the status of archived e-mail
disputed. We are keen to provide our fee-earners
with the tools to guard against such risks and to
enhance the quality of e-mail service to and for our
clients, without impinging on our fee-earners’ daily
working practices, without requiring any third party
cooperation, and without any upfront or recurring
maintenance charges. Our lawyers can now proactively
protect themselves, our clients and the firm by
simply opting to send e-mails via RPost at the click
of a button. We then have legal proof of the e-mail
content, that it was sent and precisely when it was
received.”
--Adam Edwards, Partner at Cumberland Ellis LLP.
London.
“As the
UK becomes increasingly litigious, organisations are
called on to protect themselves and be accountable
for all communication, electronic and physical. Law
firms are essentially at the centre of this trend
and so must proactively record and archive e-mails
in a similar manner to physical files. We would
never allow hard copy matter files to be sent to
clients and third parties via standard postal
services, so why rely on this for e-mail? RPost
presented a simple, all-in-one solution that was
easy to deploy, required very little training and
did not rely on recipient’s actions or active
acceptance.”
--Robert Cohen, IT Director at Speechly Bircham LLP.
London.
“Registered E-mail® is better than using
registered letters or FedEx®, since neither can provide
proof of content transmitted.”
--Alexander
Anolik, general counsel to the Association of Retail Travel
Agents, which endorsed Registered E-mail® services
in 2005.
“Registered E-mail® allows me to e-mail
time-sensitive documents, such as director and shareholder
written consents or contract notices.”
--Dennis J. Rasor, corporate attorney at Greenberg
Traurig LLP.
“To prove an e-transaction
in court, the record retention features of Registered
E-mail® will prove invaluable.”
--Jeremiah S. Buckley, partner at Buckley Kolar LLP, serves
as general counsel to the Electronic Financial Services
Council.
"The Registered E-mail® service is a powerful
deal-closing tool for offers, counter-offers, acceptance,
and required notifications providing transaction parties
with accountability, irrefutable proof of delivery and
receipt, official time stamps, and non-repudiation."
--Jack Cranley, attorney at law, former Associate
General Counsel of CitiMortgage, contributor and editor
for the Standards and Procedures for Electronic Signatures
and Records publication for the financial services sector.
