We used to pick up the phone to call a client, fellow lawyer, accountant, banker – or even a doctor. If they were not available, we left a voicemail and got a call back by the end of the day. If it was urgent, we asked someone if they could slip a note in front of the person and let them know you were on hold.

Plus, it frequently occurs late in the game, leaving professionals under pressure, sifting through chaotic 100-page PDFs, and frustrated with poorly formatted information & patent numbers.
