Law Firms
It’s all about clients and matters
The intake process for obtaining new clients or matters involves regulatory requirements such as Know Your Client (KYC) and Conflict of Interest (COI). Having it as an initial, integrated part of the client and matter management helps ensure full compliance and audit trail of the decisions made.
Time entry is a challenge since lawyers usually work on multiple cases simultaneously, mainly on minute-wise intervals which need to be registered. A time tracker that requires minimal clicks is key for not missing time spent on matters. Long descriptions often require a different way of viewing and editing. Predefined descriptions and description rules are an effective approach to standardise and quality-assure time descriptions, while minimising the time required to create value-adding texts.
Invoicing is often done in a collaborative workflow process where the amount to be invoiced usually needs to be re-evaluated and distributed between resources based on their success and contributions to the matter.

We needed a system that could provide us with better quality data, and better visibility into both clients and matters. Now you only need to go into the ERP to see all the AML & KYC compliance checks a client has gone through. Today not only do we capture more time at an earlier stage, but we can handle specific time entry requirements. And lawyers really like the Outlook integration! It simplifies a lot.
