The challenge

Law firms juggle dozens of active matters across email threads, physical files, and personal calendars. Critical deadlines hide in the noise, and billable hours leak away untracked.

Discovery & research

Sitting with partners, associates, and clerks revealed the core need: not more features, but one trustworthy view of every matter - deadlines, documents, and billing tied to the case, not the inbox.

The solution

Everything tied to the matter.

We designed a case-centric workspace: every document, appointment, note, and invoice attaches to its matter. Deadline tracking surfaces what needs attention today, and billing captures time where the work happens.

01DiscoveryStakeholder workshops, competitive analysis, and user research to frame the real problem.
02DefinitionProduct strategy, prioritized roadmap, and success metrics agreed with stakeholders.
03DesignDashboard design centered on a today-view of deadlines, hearings, and expiring tasks across all matters.
04ValidationPilot testing with a working firm validated the case timeline and billing capture against real matters.
