Legal integration, explained
Which systems do law firms integrate?
Legal integrations connect client intake, matter management, documents and trust accounting, so new matters are opened once, documents are filed correctly and billing reflects the work done.
Typical systems: practice and matter management systems such as LegalSuite or AJS, document management, trust accounting, client intake and e-signature.
Attorneys are regulated by the Legal Practice Council, trust money is subject to strict accounting rules, FICA applies to client onboarding and POPIA to personal information.
Legal systems
Where do law firms lose time to systems that do not talk?
A new client often fills in a form on the website, sends documents by email and is then captured again into the matter management system by a secretary. Later, the same details are retyped into conveyancing or billing tools. Connecting intake, documents and practice management removes that duplication and the errors it creates, while the trust accounting rules stay exactly where they belong.
Four integrations for legal.
Where law firms and conveyancers usually start.
Documents and signatures
Generated documents filed to the matter and sent for e-signature.
Time and billing
Time entries and disbursements flow into billing and accounts.
Client updates
Matter milestones trigger client notifications by email or WhatsApp.

How we deliver an integration
A clear path. Tested before it goes live.
Every connector is built in staging, run in parallel with your team and monitored after launch.
- Step 1
Discovery and mapping
We audit SKUs, warehouses, customers and accounts on both sides and agree a written field map.
- Step 2
Staging connector
The connector is built and tested against test data or a copy of your company.
- Step 3
Parallel run and go-live
Both the old process and the connector run side by side until the numbers match.
- Step 4
Monitor and support
Alerts, logs and a runbook, with monitoring plans from R2,500 a month.
