Law firm billing software

Bill the time you actually worked.

Time captured as the work happens rather than reconstructed on a Friday afternoon, invoices in any currency, retainers and trust reconciled in real time, and profitability visible per matter, per partner, and per client.

Capabilities

From the work to the payment.

Billing software fails at the two ends: capturing the time honestly, and collecting the money promptly. The middle, producing an invoice, is the part everyone already does.

Automatic time capture

Research, drafting, and calls timed against the matter as they happen, editable before the invoice goes out.

Multi-currency invoicing

Bill local clients in local currency and international clients in theirs, with jurisdiction-aware tax, from one matter list.

Retainers and trust

Client money held separately from operating funds and reconciled in real time, with an exportable audit trail.

Live profitability

Revenue, work in progress, collections, and write-offs by matter, partner, practice area, and client.

In depth

Where the money leaks.

Capture

Reconstructed time is always lower than real time.

A fee earner writing up their week on Friday does not remember Tuesday’s twenty-minute call or the half hour spent checking an authority. That shortfall never appears in any report, because a firm cannot report on time it never recorded. Because ModulawAI is where the research, drafting, calls, and client messages happen, the time is a by-product of the work rather than an act of memory.

Collection

An invoice nobody chases is a donation.

Ageing invoices are visible on the dashboard rather than discovered at the quarter end, clients can see and settle invoices in the portal without an email exchange, and the follow-up is a tracked task with an owner. See the client portal.

Pricing

Hourly, fixed fee, and contingency together.

Firms rarely bill one way any more. Hourly, fixed-fee, capped, and contingency matters sit side by side on the same list, each with disbursements charged correctly, so profitability comparisons across pricing models are possible rather than theoretical.

FAQ

Questions, addressed.

What is law firm billing software?

Law firm billing software records billable time against matters, produces client invoices, tracks payments and disbursements, and handles client or trust money separately from the firm’s operating funds. The difference between products is usually how honestly time gets captured and how well the money gets collected, rather than the invoice itself.

Does it handle trust and client accounts?

Yes. Retainers and client money are held and reported separately from operating funds and reconciled in real time, with every movement date-stamped, attributable, and exportable for audit or compliance review.

Can we bill in more than one currency?

Yes. Invoicing is multi-currency with jurisdiction-aware tax, so a firm can bill local clients in local currency and international clients in theirs from the same matter list.

Does it replace our accounting package?

It handles billing, disbursements, retainers, and trust reconciliation and exports to standard accounting formats. Most firms keep their statutory accounting package and use ModulawAI as the operational source of truth.

How is time actually captured?

Timers attach to the activity itself, so research, drafting, and calls performed inside the platform are timed against the matter automatically. Entries stay editable until the invoice is issued.
