We are super excited to show you what we’ve been working: TimeNet Law 4! This huge update is coming soon, and it’s loaded with fantastic new features and a gorgeous new smart dashboard. Soon we’ll also be offering some really exciting new services that you’re going to love. Let’s dive in!

Schedules and Tasks

TimeNet Law 4 gives you an entire scheduling and task management system that fully integrates with your billing. It’s a killer way to keep yourself and your team on task. Track deadlines and always know what meetings and tasks are coming up. And of course, because it’s integrated into your billing system, every task, meeting, and deadline can be automatically billed with one click.

TimeNet Law 4 has all the features you expect from a great task management system:

• Prioritize tasks and give them deadlines
• Organize task into categories and use tags
• Link tasks to clients for automated billing
• See a timeline of the day, week, or month ahead
• See calendars specific to clients and matters
• Get practical alerts and reminders that always keep you informed of what needs to be done next
• Set how aggressive you want reminders to be, anywhere from “Just leave me alone” all the way up to “Pester me relentlessly”
• Search tasks quickly with powerful filters to find exactly what you’re looking for

Smart Dashboard

The new Smart Dashboard will quickly become an indispensable tool for your law firm. Be greeted every morning with critical insights about your law firm, an overview of your day or week, and a fantastic launchpad that keeps you focused and moving smoothly from one task to the next. You’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.

• See an overview of your day or week, and quickly find gaps where you may have forgotten to enter your time
• Move quickly and stay focused with Launchpad – it surfaces important tasks, deadlines, meetings, recently worked on matters, and more.
• See relevant files, tasks and deadlines instantly as you move between clients and matters
• Know exactly what’s on the agenda for your day, and what tasks need to be done next
• Get helpful reminders and suggestions
• See details related to the entire firm and the big picture, or see a layout tailored for one specific timekeeper
• Jump to the right matter from the Dashboard, and see the new Launchpad icon next to clients that have tasks or events due today

Document Management

TimeNet Law 4 manages all of your documents for you. Store them in your database so they’re always available to everyone, anywhere. Documents can be linked to clients and timers, assigned to timekeepers, and organized with tags and categories. Now all of your important firm and client files are right at your fingertips.

• Link documents to timers so time spent is always tracked automatically
• Create multiple deadlines per document
• Save a document as a template and easily duplicate it

This is just the beginning

TimeNet Law 4 is just the start of something new and special. The items listed above are planned for the 4.0 release, but we are already hard at work creating even more great features. Coming shortly after 4.0, we have two more big updates planned.

iOS and TimeNet Law Portal

An iOS app has been in development and promised for years now, and it’s still not here. There’s no excuse – this is our fault and we feel awful about it. While we have hit roadblock after roadblock creating an iOS app that lives up to our sky high standards of simplicity, power, and privacy, the simple fact is we haven’t delivered. And for that, we apologize.

We are committed to bringing TimeNet Law to your iPhone and iPad in early 2021, and have revamped our development timeline to do so, no matter what. It will roll out in incremental stages, but we know the #1 requested feature is simply to time tasks and log expenses while on the go, and that’s what we’re starting with.

We’re also creating a brand new system that will allow you to send and receive documents to and from your clients with paranoid encryption – because email is inherently insecure and inadequate. This system will let you message securely with your clients, share documents back and forth, and integrate directly with TimeNet Law’s new Document Management system.

This system will also give you customizable online client intake forms for your law firm, the ability to accept credit card payments from your clients, and a lot of other exciting new features. We’re calling it TimeNet Law Portal and it will be launching next year, after our iOS app is available.

We can’t wait for you to get your hands on TimeNet Law 4 and let us know what you think! We will be releasing more screenshots and details as we get closer to the final release, so be sure to check back here and follow us on Twitter!
