Berlin (ots Ad hoc-Service) -

Ad hoc-announcement edited and sent by DGAP. The sender is solely
responsible for the contents of this announcement.
FORIS AG (WKN: 577580) has set
itself the goal of connecting lawyers up with the Internet. To this
end, two strategic partnership contracts have just been concluded,
namely with Hewlett Packard as hardware supplier and LeCare as
software manufacturer. FORIS sees these partnerships as a further
step to realizing a central lawyers' portal and hence the possibility
of distributing its own products and services over the Internet.
A leading financier of legal proceedings, FORIS AG has designed -
in collaboration with Hewlett Packard - a lawyer's PC customized for
the requirements of law offices. Numerous contents of great use for
everyday practice are pre-installed on the lawyer's PC, and the
lawyer can access offers from FORIS AG directly via a customized
browser. The PC will go on sale on March 9.
LeCare is the first software house to offer software with fully
integrated database linkage such that it does not have to be
installed on the individual workstations of a network but can be
fully utilized over the Internet (ASP). It enables the lawyer to
access his or her office and documents from anywhere in the world;
this is very attractive both for individual lawyers as well for
internationally networked firms of lawyers. All program updates are
performed via the Internet. The program will also include the service
offers and information databases of FORIS AG. Fourteen years of
software development for legal applications has gone into the
program. In view of this wealth of experience and the developing
market requirements, the managing director of LeCare considered that
only a completely new conception was feasible.
Issuer's information/explanation remarks concerning this ad hoc
announcement:
FORIS is convinced that LeCare will assume the market lead in
lawyers' software, especially as it has proved possible to adopt all
legal data which has been integrated in previously leading programs.
The marketing campaign will be launched at the CeBit and
simultaneously through the portal of FORIS AG on March 26, 2001.
