SimpleLegal is a cloud-based legal operations platform designed for in-house legal teams that need to manage matters, track legal spend, and coordinate with outside counsel in a single integrated system. The platform combines matter management, e-billing, vendor management, and legal holds into a cohesive legal operations infrastructure.
The platform's user-friendly interface and transparent pricing distinguish it from legacy legal operations systems that require significant IT support and implementation resources. SimpleLegal can be deployed by in-house legal operations teams without external consultants, making it accessible for companies that don't have the budget for major enterprise software implementations.
Key capabilities include matter intake with customizable intake forms, matter management with task tracking and document storage, e-billing with billing guideline enforcement, vendor scorecarding for outside counsel performance tracking, and legal hold management. The reporting module provides visibility into spend by matter type, practice area, law firm, and time period.
SimpleLegal is particularly well-suited for in-house legal teams of 5-50 attorneys that have grown beyond spreadsheet-based matter tracking but don't need the full complexity of enterprise platforms like Thomson Reuters Legal Tracker. The platform's scale and feature set match the needs of this mid-market segment.
