Insight Legal is software for UK and Ireland law firms that combines cloud-based accounting, case management and practice management. Case management provides tailored workflows and a central matter record for correspondence, dates, case information and next steps. Legal accounting handles client file accounts and the firm’s business accounts, with controls, reporting, integrated bank feeds and links to online banking for transaction posting. Built-in compliance checks, automatic reconciliations and reporting support Law Society and Solicitors’ Accounts Rules requirements. The system can report and submit VAT returns to HMRC through a digital integration, but it does not support Making Tax Digital for Income Tax for individuals. Other functions include a client portal, document automation, time tracking, billing and payments, trust accounting, mobile apps and payment links in invoices or correspondence. Deployment can be local, cloud-based or hybrid across Windows applications, mobile apps and web services. Pricing is on request, with monthly fees and 30-day or 12-month rolling contracts.
Who it is for
It suits UK and Ireland law firms, including legal cashiers, practice managers, fee earners and partners. Firms needing legal accounting alongside matter management can use its listed functions.
