Microsoft Excel can be an important spreadsheet application for lawyers. It effectively manages and organizes data in a variety of lists; for example, lists of cases, documents, and exhibits. Excel can also calculate interest on court judgments and determine dates to file deadlines. You can use it to transform data into professional tables and reports that can then be inserted into Word and PowerPoint documents. This overview course demonstrates Excel using different legal examples.
