  • What features should my matter management solution have?

    Below are all the essential features that all good matter management software solutions require to help you effectively manage your legal cases. These features must be fully integrated and a core part of the system.
    Matter management
    The fundamentals of inputting and storing related client and case data and documents against a matter forms the basis of any matter management software. This will enable you to easily search for and organise your cases effectively.
    Task and date management
    The ability to manage your calendar, assign and create tasks, monitor case progression and stay on top of key dates and deadlines. Osprey Approach enables automation of these key repetitive tasks so you can be confident you’re always on top of your to-do list.
    Document & form creation
    Your case software should enable you to quickly and easily create new documents using your brand guidelines and from templated and approved documents if set up by your firm. Ideally, like with Osprey Approach, this process can be automated and documents and forms can be auto-populated using the data you store against the matter.
    Document management
    The ability to store, organise and collaborate on documents and files from within the platform. You must be able to quickly search for and find documents within the matter management software. Additionally this will allow you to easily build case bundles, saving your hours of time.
    Time recording
    Streamline your billing processes and improve the accuracy of your finances with integrated time recording. You should be able to record units in real-time using a stopwatch, after the task or in bulk. The matter management software needs to allow various fee structures, flat fee rates and legal aid billing to be most effective.
    Accounting & billing
    To ensure accuracy and to get paid faster, legal software should have a specialised, integrated legal accounting solution. This should include separate client and office accounts, automated billing and invoicing functionality to streamline the process from initial enquiry to case completion.
    Client & third party web portal
    To improve communication and collaboration, a matter management software should provide a secure web portal that enables you to share and receive data, documents, case updates, and e-signatures online. A client portal is crucial for delivering a modern, frictionless client service that wins good review, referrals, and recommendation.
    Automated workflows
    To maximise efficiencies, the tasks and actions involved in any legal case, no matter the area of law, should be able to be built into a workflow to enable automation and standardisation. Osprey provides configurable specialised workflows for a variety of areas of law so you can streamline your processes.
    Integrations
    Effective legal software should connect with your other key business tools and software applications so that your case management solution can become the centralised platform for all operations. Key integrations include your email client, Word, e-signature tool and forms and search providers.
    Compliance tools
    To ensure you’re delivering legal services in line with regulations and your firm’s accreditations your legal software should provide some base level compliance tools to help lawyers stay compliant, to reduce risk, and overhead costs.
    Practice management solution
    To provide a complete, end-to-end view of your operations and enable ultimate control your case management software and functionality will be a part of a wider practice management solution. This will enables firm-wise reporting, enquiry management, CRM, and top-level compliance functionality.
