Juris® Financial Management Solutions

Juris is the leading billing and accounting solution for mid-size law firms in the United States. Juris solutions help you streamline practice management and workflow, meet accounting, billing and reporting requirements, and take targeted steps to increase both profitability and per-partner income. Juris legal billing software provides you with ongoing access to key financial metrics that are vital to making informed business decisions.

Benefits

Juris financial management solutions are built on robust legal billing software designed to help you capture more billable hours and accelerate cash flow. But Juris helps your firm accomplish much more. Specialized tools enable you to budget more effectively, accommodate diverse legal accounting requirements, streamline practice management, manage firm leverage, analyze your business performance, make better business decisions and increase per-partner income.

Capture more billable hours and expenses

Report and track billable hours anytime to make sure it doesn’t slip away. Juris legal billing software offers easy time entry with Web-enabled tools, customizable screens and built-in compliance features that detect errors and suggest corrective action.

Accelerate cash flow and improve billing realization

  • Speed billing and reduce errors, month-end disruptions, adjustments, write-offs and bad debt by making the most of audit, validation, compliance and spell check features, as well as electronic billing capabilities.
  • Accelerate bill review and editing by changing prebill formats on the fly.
  • Use e-alerts to automatically advise the appropriate attorney when intervention is required.
  • Improve cash flow by entering vendor bills upon receipt and setting them up to pay later.

Achieve faster and more accurate financial budgeting

With a specialized tool for integrated actuals, your firm gains the ability to import your general ledger (GL) structure as well as actual data from prior periods and then apply multiple spread methods to forecast changes in each GL account.

Meet your firm’s specific accounting needs and increase operational efficiency

Juris provides a solid foundation for your firm’s accounting work, operational processes, management controls and overall practice management:

  • Accounting flexibility accommodates a wide range of practices common among private law firms.
  • Juris distinguishes between fees, cash expenses and non-cash expenses.
  • You can control which individuals within the firm can access specific tools and information.
  • Your budgets can be organized at the matter or case level or by individual (with an added option).
  • You can set up automated handling of the case- or matter-specific pricing, billing and reporting requirements.
  • Juris integrates with front-office software to unify your firm’s workflow.

Manage firm leverage

  • Increase effective blended rates with real-time management analysis tools, anniversary date tracking, pricing flexibility at the matter level and easy implementation of price changes.
  • Analysis tools help you effectively utilize staff so that attorneys, paralegals and other professionals make the best use of their time and expertise.
  • Management reporting capabilities shed light on who is meeting goals and who isn’t, allowing the firm to attract and retain a profitable team.

Analyze your firm’s financial performance and make better, quicker business decisions

Review performance reports and customizable dashboards—organized by individual or team. View your firm’s key profit drivers and drill down to see the underlying reports.

Increase per-partner income

The Juris payoff quickly exceeds your initial investment in software and services. Partner income increases as you take in higher fee revenue, capture more billable time, send and collect on bills more quickly, recover more client expenses, and gain greater total bottom-line revenue.
