Great iPhone applications for lawyers

The hottest iPhone applications for lawyers

For those of us who love their iPhones, the ABA Journal recently listed "70 Sizzling Apps" for iPhone using lawyers. Check out the article here. My favorite is the Quickoffice application that allows you to open, view, edit and share Microsoft Word, Excel or PowerPoint documents. Even though I'm a Mac user, I still rely on Microsoft Word and Excel in my business. For those PC users looking to trash that PC and buy a Mac, don't worry--Office for Mac gives you Word, Excel and PowerPoint to use on your Mac for a decent price. And the next update of Office for Mac will have Microsoft Outlook (or so Microsoft promises). Currently, Office for Mac ships with Entourage as the e-mail program. I don't use it. Rather, I rely on Apple Mail for my mail program and it works great.

A few of the other favorite applications are:

WaffleTurtle: seachable iPhone apps for the U.S. Constitution, Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Federal Rules of Bankruptcy Procedure, Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure, Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, Federal Rules of Evidence, and a host of other federal laws.

Black's Law Dictionary

Dictionary.com

Evernote: great app for clipping articles online, taking notes or recoding voice notes.
