Before generating a form from the Forms and Templates menu, your LEAP Zoning/Land Use matter should be completed as fully as possible. This includes creating cards for the Client, Other side, Other side’s attorney, and entering all available information. LEAP enables you to enter information that is critical. 

One useful feature to highlight is the convert fields to text button. Microsoft Word’s default setting updates all fields prior to printing, which can cause you to lose information or check boxes that you entered manually. You can easily prevent this by highlighting the desired field and clicking the convert fields to text button on the LEAP ribbon.

Default Tables

The below tables will appear by default on your matter 

Additional Tables
