Keep money you hold on behalf of clients clearly separated from your office funds. Record receipts and payments against each client, watch balances update in real time, and give your cashier the clean, traceable records they rely on.

Log billable hours and costs against every matter so you know exactly which cases, clients, and fee earners are making money, and which aren't. Replace month-end guesswork with a live view of where your firm earns.

Raise time-based, fixed-fee, and retainer invoices in minutes. Capture disbursements as you go, apply the right VAT treatment, and send branded bills your clients can settle online.

Record billable time from your desktop, mobile, or a built-in timer. Review and approve timesheets, then compare budgeted against actual hours so nothing billable slips through.

Connect your firm's bank accounts, let transactions flow in automatically, and reconcile in a few clicks. Keep an accurate, current picture of your firm's cash position at all times.
