Case Management for Advocates

Legal Files provides the best management tools that advocates have ever had — a legal matter management program that offers comprehensive legal case management AND a front-end intake and eligibility module.

Our software helps you meet your reporting requirements while tracking your outreach and community education efforts. In addition, you can also use Legal Files to track calls for assistance that must be turned away and referred to other programs or agencies.

Created specifically for legal services programs and developed with input from national experts, the unique workflow management features in Legal Files make it a comprehensive tool that replaces your intake and eligibility process and helps you serve more clients, more efficiently — without additional staff or hours.
