Power Apps for Legal
Replace paper forms and spreadsheets with custom mobile and desktop apps built on Microsoft Power Apps — no coding required from your team.
Why legal businesses choose this
Power Apps built for legal
Legal practices and law firms bill by the hour, yet fee earners spend a significant share of their day on unbillable work: chasing client documents, tracking limitation dates, and compiling matter status updates. When matter intake takes days and compliance deadlines slip during busy periods, both revenue and professional liability are at risk. Automating intake workflows, deadline alerts, and billing processes on Microsoft 365 protects revenue and reduces risk simultaneously.
Reduce new matter intake from 3-5 days to same-day with automated workflows
Eliminate missed limitation dates and filing deadlines with escalation alerts
Recover 5-8 billable hours per fee earner per week from admin overhead
How it works
What we actually build and deliver
We start with your current paper form, spreadsheet, or manual process and design a mobile and desktop app that replaces it. Data is stored in Dataverse or SharePoint — whichever fits your environment. The app includes role-based access, validation rules, and offline support for field workers. We build, test, and deploy the app to your team with written guides and a walkthrough session.
The problem
What is slowing legal businesses down
Client onboarding and conflict checks take days
New matter intake involves forms, ID verification, conflict searches, engagement letters, and billing setup across multiple people and systems — none of it coordinated.
Billable time leaking to non-billable admin
Fee earners spend hours on document chasing, deadline tracking, and status updates that should be automated. Every hour lost is revenue not recovered.
Compliance deadlines missed when matter volume spikes
When the team is stretched, limitation dates, court filing deadlines, and regulatory submissions can slip — creating serious professional liability risk.

FAQ
Common questions
Can the app work offline in the field?
Yes. Power Apps supports offline mode with automatic data sync when connectivity returns. We configure this for field-based workflows.
Can different users see different data?
Yes. We implement role-based access so managers, field staff, and admins each see the right records and actions for their role.
Do staff need to install anything?
Staff install the free Power Apps mobile app on their phone or tablet. Desktop users access the app through a browser — no installation needed.
Can this connect to our practice management software (LEAP, ActionStep, Clio)?
Yes. Power Automate has connectors for LEAP, Clio, and ActionStep. We confirm integration scope during discovery.
How is client confidentiality protected?
All automation runs entirely within your Microsoft 365 tenant. No client data touches any external server or third-party platform.
Can this help a small firm of 3–10 lawyers?
Yes. Most of our professional services clients are boutique practices. We size the solution to your volume and budget.
