Software for Solicitors

The Insight Legal System

At Insight Legal we only create software for solicitors.

Law Firms are unique entities and have a number of factors that set them apart from other commercial organisations and professional service providers.

The Insight Legal System has been designed to meet the needs of legal practices no matter what their size or type. It is comprehensive, customisable and, above all, easy to use and understand. Deployment is very flexible and updates delivered automatically.

Legal Accounts

Legal Accounts is an area so specialised that it forms part of a solicitor’s training. Law firms generally have to handle client money and pay for services on behalf of clients (disbursements). In addition they must ensure they comply with the Law Society Rules or SRA Accounts Rules applicable to their area. General accounting systems simply don’t handle these things well, if at all.

Legal Practice Management

Law Firms of all sizes require good practice management information to allow partners and directors to make informed strategic decisions. In addition, it is important that the system provides information on the day-to-day running of the firm. From assessing the profitability of each department to generating the figures required for your Indemnity Insurance, a law firm needs a Practice Management System that will help inform, guide and assist with the management of the firm.

Case Management

The term Case Management means different things to different people. When we talk about Case Management we mean giving Solicitors and support staff the tools to efficiently handle their cases.

The Insight Legal System contains the functionality to assist Fee Earners in progressing and managing their cases without being prescriptive. Further, we feature all of the functionality for creating documents, delivering and storing emails, and maintaining case specific data, along with managing your document histories and integrating your diary.

Compliance

Law firms are required to operate within the rules set out by many organisations, including their governing Law Society, the SRA and HMRC (amongst others). This covers processes from performing proper conflict checks, correctly handling client money and paying any interest due, to prompt payment of suppliers and submitting your VAT returns correctly and on time. Without a system built with compliance considered at every stage of its design and evolution, can you be sure you and your practice are not inadvertently failing to meet your obligations under the frequently evolving rules?

Billing

Law firm bills or fees usually include professional services (whether time recorded or not) and disbursements/outlays. Some or all of these elements combined make up a bill. Insight automatically generates the bill including all of the correct figures, with VAT applied only to the relevant transactions. Most general accounting systems can do billing, but very few will bring together a Fee Earner’s costs, disbursements and correctly applied VAT, whilst also ensuring you comply with SRA or Law Society regulations when the client pays the bill.

Time Recording

Not every firm time records, but those that do they need a really flexible and easy to use time recording system that integrates into other areas of the system such as billing. Designed specifically for Solicitors, the Insight Legal System allows for billing by the unit (whatever you deem to be a unit) and allows tracking of WIP and total time over the life of a case, along with plenty of analysis of the work done by Fee Earner, department and matter type.

Mobile App

Sometimes it is not possible to have your laptop / home PC available and that is why you and your business could benefit from using mobile apps to enhance your compliant software.

Our mobile app allows you to review and work on your cases whilst on the move. It is easy to use and provides the essential functions to keep on top of your workload and update your main system to make sure nothing is missed. It runs on iOS and Android and is functional on both tablets and phones.

Pricing

We recognise that cost will be a factor for all firms. Competition in legal services will always put a pressure on the charges firms can make. This, in turn, impacts what firms can afford to spend.

Our pricing policy is very simple. We don’t offer discounts, just a fair and honest price for software. We do not have any hidden charges or nasty surprises.

The cost for the Insight Legal software is £52 per month for the first user and £31 per month for each subsequent user on an annual contract. Alternatively you can opt for £57 per month for the first user and £34 per month for each subsequent user on a rolling monthly contract.

There are no upfront costs for the software. There is just a monthly fee. For this fee, you get to use all the functions of the software and receive all updates. In addition, you receive unlimited support from our telephone helpline.

The only other charges may be the cost of converting data if you are moving from another system, training, and project management if applicable. You can see our data conversion and training pages to get an idea of how reasonable these costs are or give us a call, we will be happy to discuss your requirements.

For our customers in the Republic of Ireland, the pricing is equally as simple and consistent: €63 per month for the first user and €42 per month for subsequent users on the annual contract. For a monthly contract the prices are €69 for the first user and €46 per month for subsequent.

In conclusion, the sooner you contact us, the sooner you can start saving money and ensuring your firm’s staff have the tools required to be effective, efficient and compliant.

Platform and Deployment

The Insight Legal System is made up of a combination of a Microsoft Windows application and Mobile Apps. Firms can choose between storing data entirely on premise, in the cloud or a mixture of both. This combination of apps and flexible deployment means users have a responsive, easy to use system. In addition, it ensures Firms are capable of taking advantage of the latest computer hardware.

We have designed the Insight Legal System to complement the way people work. Form layouts are user-customisable to the individual’s preferences and needs. We understand the realities of the modern office. For instance, not everyone is able to do one job at a time. The Windows application allows users to truly multi-task. For example you might be compiling a long report on one tab, running a bank reconciliation on another whilst also dealing with a client requesting details of their bill. This flexibility and usability comes from designing software to meet real-world user’s needs.

In conclusion, this forward thinking design and making software that optimised for the real-world is what sets Insight Legal apart from other suppliers.
