Free Software for Trial Lawyers

By John A. Day

ADVERTISEMENTS

The good folks at the Winning Trial Advocacy Tips blog have assembled some more great information of interest to trial lawyers. This post is titled "Free Software for Trial Lawyers' and features a dozen free or almost free programs of interest to lawyers who try personal injury and wrongful death cases.

An excerpt from the post:

IMAGE EDITING PROGRAMS

GIMP: www.gimp.org
Need to crop photos, modify images, or enhance images for trial? This is a cheap (free) alternative to Adobe Photoshop. It includes a wide variety of image editing tools. It's not easy to get started, but it's a powerful resource.

Seashore: www.seashore.sourceforge.net
A simple image editing program that's easier to use than GIMP.

Inkscape: www.inkscape.org
This is an illustration program (similar to Adobe Illustrator) that lets you create vector drawings and illustrations. It doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the professional program, but it lets you create amazing artwork.

Hugin: www.hugin.sourceforge.net
If you're trying to take photos of a large, panoramic area, you usually can't fit the entire scene into a single photo (at least not without a thousand dollar camera lens). Hugin solves that problem by letting you stitch 2+ photos together into a panoramic view.
