[blindlaw] iManage

[Stewart, Christopher K]

Hi Angie,

I talked to the IT folks at the firm, and they've said it's no problem
to start me off with FileSite on my computer. I don't know what
they're running, but do you know what version you're using? I just ask
because it looks like they will figure out how to install whatever we
know already works.

Thanks,
chris
