ABOUT LAWMATE

We’re building the operating system for modern legal work

LawMate pairs trustworthy AI with compliant, practical workflows so lawyers can focus on practice—not admin. Everything you need: time capture, documents, LEDES/IOLTA billing, and client experience in one workspace.

360° time capture

Desktop passive tracking, mobile quick-add, and web timers work together so nothing slips.

Documents & e-sign

Templates, multi-signer routing, audit trails, and ESIGN/UETA alignment are built in.

Billing & IOLTA

Trust-aware workflows, LEDES exports, and predictive revenue insights keep firms compliant.

Client experience

Approve time, sign documents, and message securely—no portal passwords required.

Our mission

Make legal work feel effortless by pairing AI assistance with compliance-first workflows. LawMate runs across web, desktop, and mobile, with everything—time, docs, tasks, billing, trust, and client collaboration—anchored to the matter.

Matter-first. Every action (time entry, document, approval, invoice) stays attached to the matter timeline.

Multi-surface by default. Desktop passive capture, mobile quick-add, and web timers keep your week honest.

Compliance built in. LEDES exports, trust accounting safeguards, and full audit trails ship with every plan.
