Legal

Practice management for solo lawyers and small firms. Open a matter and keep everything about it in one workspace: contacts, time, documents, deadlines, bills and trust balance, so nothing about a case is scattered.

Where do I open Legal?

Open Legal at https://legal.nubosuite.tech or from the Apps tab in Nubo Home. You sign in once with your Nubo account for every app; see Create an account and sign in.

What can Legal do?

• Matter workspace. Tabs for tasks, documents, bills, notes and trust.
• Timer. A running timer in the top bar that survives reloads.
• Conflict checks. Search every contact and party by name, email or phone.
• Trust ledger. A matter’s trust balance can never go below zero.

Type time the way you think of it

Enter 1.5, 1:30, 1h 30m or 90m. Entries round up to your billing increment, and rates come from the matter, then the person, then the firm.

Draft bills for many matters at once

Generate drafts from unbilled work in a period, review line by line, then approve and issue. Voiding a bill returns its work to unbilled.

Trust accounting you can reconcile

Operating and trust accounts, per-matter ledgers, low-balance alerts and a three-way reconciliation check. Balances always come from the transactions.

What else is in Legal?

• Calendar. Court dates, deadlines and statute of limitations dates, on layers per user.
• Document templates. Merge client and matter fields into letters.
• Communications log. Record calls, emails and meetings, with optional time entry.
• Task templates. Create a full checklist on a matter, assigned by role.
• Stages board. Drag open matters through stages per practice area.
• Reports. Receivables aging, utilization, profitability and trust balances.

Which apps does Legal work with?

Common questions about Legal

Can colleagues share the same firm?

Yes. The owner invites them with single-use links, and each works with their own Nubo account, role and hourly rate.

Can I give clients bills as PDF?

Yes. Bills and client statements print or save as PDF.

Does it meet my bar’s trust account rules?

Rules differ by jurisdiction, so check yours with your bar association. The app tracks trust accounting alongside your matters.
