We are very pleased to announce that the latest version of our TurboLaw Automated Document Software, version 2.74, is now available to all of our customers. This new version includes a number of requested improvements, as well as new features that we’ve added to help make it even easier to enter case information and create and manage documents with TurboLaw.

Here is a list of the new features and changes introduced in TurboLaw Version 2.74:

  • Added a “Refresh” button to the list of Saved Documents for a case, so you can easily refresh the list if you’ve changed the files outside of TurboLaw (see picture below):

    The new "Refresh" buton

  • When showing “Inactive” cases, the inactive cases are visually distinguished from “Active” cases by a lighter gray color (see picture below):

  • The “Search Documents” window and the “Create Documents for a Case” window now remember what size they were, and open with that same size the next time you open it.
  • Improved handling of Internet connection problems in the TurboLaw Update Utility.

We also added some changes that affect specific areas of law:

  • For MA/Divorce, NH/Domestic Relations, and RI/Family Law, you can now select “no state” for an address (e.g., place of marriage) if the address was outside the U.S. (see picture below):

    Easier to add non-U.S. addresses

  • For MA/Divorce, NH/Domestic Relations, and RI/Family Law, when entering children, the program automatically defaults to the last name of the “father” (that is, whichever party is “male”). You can, of course, still override this by simply typing in a different name, if the default last name is incorrect.

TurboLaw users should receive a notification of this new update from your TurboLaw program shortly after you open it (if you have Automatic Updates turned on). If you don’t have Automatic Updates turned on, you can click the Update menu in TurboLaw and choose Check for Updates instead.

As always, we continue to update TurboLaw based on feedback we hear from our customers – so if you have an idea or suggestion for TurboLaw, we’d love to hear from you!
