Legal Practice Management Software Built for General Practice Firms

Working at a general practice firm means juggling different case types, deadlines that don’t overlap, and billing rules that change from client to client. One case is in court with strict filing deadlines, another requires contract negotiations that drag on for months, and a third is waiting on a client to provide key documents.

Meanwhile, your inbox is full, staff needs direction, and you’re chasing down billable hours across multiple fee structures. It’s a lot to manage—especially if everything is spread across different tools, email chains, and handwritten notes.

FAQs: Legal Software for General Practice Firms

How does CARET Legal help firms that handle multiple types of cases? Most legal software is designed for firms that focus on one area of law. CARET Legal is built for firms that juggle litigation, transactional work, and advisory services—without forcing attorneys to fit into a one-size-fits-all system.
Instead of keeping case details in one system, billing in another, and calendars in a third, CARET Legal has everything in one place—so nothing gets lost and your firm runs more efficiently.
Without a structured system, firms waste too much time on administrative work—tracking down documents, entering billable hours manually, and following up on invoices. CARET Legal keeps everything organized so attorneys can focus on practicing law.
