Your paralegal shouldn’t be your IT department.

Small and midsize law firms in Birmingham run on process — intake, document management, deadlines, billing, client communication. When those processes live in spreadsheets, email folders, and someone’s memory, things get missed.

I build custom software for law firms that replaces the manual scaffolding with purpose-built tools. Not a case management platform you rent — software you own, designed around how your firm actually operates.

What I build for law firms

Client intake

Online intake forms that collect the right information upfront and route it to the right attorney. No re-entry, no paper chase.

Document workflow

Template generation, version tracking, and approval routing. Reduce the time spent finding, formatting, and sending documents.

Case and matter tracking

Status, deadlines, assignments, and notes in one place. Know where every matter stands without asking.

Client communication

Automated updates, appointment confirmations, and document request follow-ups. Clients stay informed, staff stays focused.

What it costs

Projects range from $3,000 to $25,000 depending on complexity. A focused intake or document workflow starts at the lower end. A full matter management system runs higher.

Flat pricing. You own the code. No monthly fees to me.

Where to go next

Same approach on every project: flat pricing, code you own, software built for how your business actually runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of firms do you work with in Birmingham?

Small and midsize practices — personal injury, family law, estate planning, real estate, business and employment law, criminal defense. Firms from solo practitioners up to about 25 people, in downtown Birmingham, Homewood, and across Jefferson County.

Is client data safe?

Your app runs on your infrastructure and your accounts. I don’t hold client files or matter data on my systems. Projects get built with role-based access, audit trails, and encrypted storage so confidentiality obligations are handled in the software rather than in a policy document.

How much does a project cost?

Flat pricing from $3,000 to $25,000, quoted before work starts. A focused intake form or document workflow sits at the lower end; a full matter management system runs higher. Infrastructure is billed at cost.

How long does implementation take?

Most projects deliver in 2–6 weeks. I build in working increments, so your team sees and reacts to the real thing well before launch.

Will this replace my paralegals or legal assistants?

No. It removes the retyping, the document hunting, and the manual follow-up reminders. The work that requires judgment stays with your staff — they just spend more of the day on it.
