Italian lawyers use open source software to move online »

“The lawyers at Solignani in Vignola, just a few miles from the home of Ferrari in Maranello, never see many of their clients after one initial meeting. All communication takes place by phone, Internet Relay Chat (IRC), Internet telephony, or email. While some clients see this as an awkward but necessary way to save money, the majority like it because it saves a lot of time. The first time each client contacts Solignani, he or she decides whether to go digital all the way or stick to traditional meetings.”
