⚖️ FLAIRE for Law Firms
Intake to invoice on one platform. Matter management, conflict checks, IOLTA trust accounting, client portal, and an origination-credit ledger that pays partners correctly — without three disconnected systems.
Why law firms hemorrhage hours on the wrong work
Most firms run a practice-management tool, a separate billing system, a CRM that nobody opens, a document portal, and email. Every seam is where billable hours go missing, trust accounting drifts, and the origination credit fight starts.
A prospect calls Monday, the conflict check happens Thursday, the engagement letter goes out next Tuesday — and half the time the prospect has already retained someone else. The intake process is the leakiest part of the funnel.
Associates reconstruct timesheets on Friday from memory and calendar entries. Time outside the matter management tool — phone calls, hallway chats, quick reviews — just disappears. Realization suffers.
Trust funds, operating funds, retainer drawdowns, and disbursements live in different tools. Three-way reconciliation is manual, and a single misposted check triggers a state-bar inquiry.
Who brought in the client? Who supervised? Who closed the matter? Without a system tracking origination and supervision credit per matter, compensation conversations turn into arguments that never fully resolve.
Built for how law firms actually operate
Three persona-based plays. Pick the one that matches your firm — or run multiple under one tenant if you span practice groups.
Solo & Small Firm (1–10 attorneys)
Plaintiff-side, estate planning, family, immigration, small-business counsel. The wins come from a website that captures prospects, an intake flow that beats the bigger firms to engagement, and clean trust accounting that keeps you off the state-bar's radar.
Pages for each practice area (estate planning, immigration, personal injury, family) with intake forms that pre-qualify and route to Nova. Ranks for "{your city} {practice area} attorney."
Every new prospect runs through automated conflict check against the client and adverse-party database before booking the consult. No more last-minute "we can't take this matter."
Hourly, flat-fee, and contingency matters in one ledger. IOLTA trust account with per-client sub-ledgers, three-way reconciliation, and disbursement tracking out of the box.
Clients sign engagement letters, upload documents, and message you securely — all protected by attorney-client privilege logging. No more "did you get my email?" calls.
Statute-of-limitations countdowns, court-deadline cascades, and matter-stage reminders — with double-redundant alerts so a missed filing never becomes a malpractice claim.
Deep dive into matter billing, IOLTA, retainer drawdowns, contingency-fee math, and origination credit splits.
Mid-Size Firm with Practice Groups (10–100 attorneys)
Multiple practice groups (corporate, litigation, real estate, employment), an operations team, and a managing partner who needs visibility across the book. Origination credit, realization by partner, and cross-practice referrals are the levers.
Per-matter origination, working-attorney, and supervision credit splits. Atlas calculates partner compensation correctly the first time — no more spreadsheet arguments at year-end.
When a corporate client mentions a litigation issue, Nova captures it as an internal referral with attribution. The originating partner stays credited even as the matter moves between practice groups.
Every matter gets its own portal: documents, messages, billing, and status. White-label per practice group so corporate clients see one experience, plaintiff-side clients see another.
Auto-generated attorney profile pages with practice areas, bar admissions, publications, and matter highlights (anonymized). SEO that actually competes with the AmLaw 200 in your markets.
DocuSign / Adobe Sign integration, e-filing connector hooks for state and federal courts, court-rule deadline cascades that respect local rules per jurisdiction.
In-House Legal & Legal Ops
General counsel running a small team that supports a much larger business. The play is intake from internal stakeholders, outside-counsel management, contract lifecycle, and reporting that justifies legal headcount to the CFO.
Sales, HR, and procurement submit legal requests through Echo. Routed by request type (contract review, employment matter, IP question) to the right in-house attorney or outside-counsel queue.
Per-firm spend, matter-level budgets, alternative-fee arrangements, e-billing with LEDES intake from your outside counsel. The CFO finally gets a real legal P&L.
Every active contract, every open matter, every counterparty tracked as a record. Renewal alerts, force-majeure search, and exposure reporting for the board.
Auto-route NDAs to the right reviewer, pull executed contracts into the inventory, fire 90/60/30-day renewal alerts to the business owner, and post quarterly outside-counsel scorecards.
One matter, end to end
A single matter from first website visit to closed file — running across all five products without anyone re-keying time, documents, or trust transactions.
Practice-area page ranks for the legal issue. Visitor fills the intake form — matter type, opposing party, jurisdiction, urgency.
Nova runs the automated conflict check against existing clients and adverse parties. Clean intake routes to the right attorney in seconds, not days.
Engagement letter sent via Echo portal, e-signed, retainer paid into IOLTA. Atlas opens the matter and posts the trust deposit with the right sub-ledger automatically.
Attorneys log time in Atlas from their phone, calendar, or document editor — in 6-minute increments with matter and task codes. WIP visible to the partner in real time.
Statute, court, and matter-stage deadlines cascade with redundant alerts. E-filing connectors push status into the matter; a missed step escalates to the supervising partner.
Atlas drafts the bill with trust drawdown applied per state rules. Echo delivers it through the portal with a payment link. Nova drops the client into a referral-and-nurture sequence — matters from past clients are your best matters.

Law firms operate under state-bar rules, attorney-client privilege, IOLTA mandates, and Model Rules of Professional Conduct. FLAIRE captures the right artifacts at the right times so a state-bar inquiry, malpractice audit, or peer review is routine instead of a fire drill.
Per-state IOLTA rules, per-client sub-ledgers, three-way reconciliation, and prohibited-commingling alerts. Atlas separates trust and operating funds at the GL with no manual journal entries.
Every intake's conflict check — including waivers, screens, and ethical walls — logged with the matter. Defensible if a state-bar grievance ever arrives.
Echo tags privileged communications and work product at the message level. Audit log shows every access, redaction, and export — ready for litigation hold or e-discovery.
Per-attorney bar admissions, license numbers, CLE credit hours, and renewal dates tracked centrally. Renewal and CLE-shortfall reminders 90/60/30 days out.
From intake to invoice — one connected platform.
