Bates Stamping is an essential process for multiple industries, including law firms, looking to meet legal requirements and to make access easier for anyone working with the documents.
Few industries handle paperwork more than legal does. Chief tasks among this multitude of documents is Bates Stamping (or numbering). A procedure in which each page in a set of documents is assigned a series of numbers (Bates number appears as a footer or a header on the pages and can combine a prefix and/or suffix), a once cumbersome task has been made easier by integrating software into the workflow process.
