Frequently Asked Questions

General Questions

What are TimeNet Law's system requirements?

TimeNet Law 4 runs on any Mac with macOS 10.10 or later, including all M1 Macs and macOS Monterey. TimeNet Law 2.9 is still available, and runs on any Mac with macOS 10.4 or later. TimeNet Law always supports the latest versions of Apple hardware and software.

Do I have to be online to use TimeNet Law?

No. TimeNet Law is an application that lives on your Mac. You can use it with or without internet access. All data is stored locally, and can optionally be synced with a cloud service.

How does TimeNet Law's networking work?

TimeNet Law can operate in a networked environment by sharing its database with other users via a file server, a shared folder, or a syncing service such as Dropbox or iCloud.

TimeNet Law does not need to be installed on a server computer, and there is no server license to buy. Simply tell TimeNet Law to work on a network, select the location for its database, and all copies of TimeNet Law will be automatically synced.

More information can be found in the Networking Guide

How do I backup my data?

By default, TimeNet Law automatically backs up its database once a day. Backups are time and date stamped and stored in any location you choose, including iCloud or Dropbox for automatic off-site backup.

If you are running TimeNet Law in a networked environment, each computer will save its own duplicate backups for additional safety.

TimeNet Law is fully compatible with Time Machine built-in automatic backup, and most 3rd party backup solutions, including Backblaze and CrashPlan.

It is strongly recommended to have Time Machine or off-site backups of your computers. For more information, see our complete backup Guide  

Can I manage more than one law firm?

Yes, TimeNet Law allows you to use multiple databases and switch between them easily using Fast Database Switching.

Questions About Features

You can also customize columns, logos, headers and footers, and more on a per-client or per-category basis.

Can TimeNet Law create invoices for all of my clients at once?

You bet! One Click Billing will show you all work in progress, and allow you to bill for everything at once.

Does TimeNet Law have spell checking built in?

Yes, TimeNet Law has full spell checking built in — any fields where data can be entered will show misspelled words by highlighting them in red.

Can I import my data from my previous billing system into TimeNet Law?

We cannot directly read the databases of most billing systems, but if your old billing application has an option to export its data (into text, csv, excel, etc.) then we can most likely import it into TimeNet Law. There is a small fee for the import, and it can vary depending on how much data needs to be imported.

Can I split billing between multiple parties?

Yep. Just enter the parties into your matter settings, and set each party's percentage of responsibility for the billing. TimeNet Law will automatically generate multiple copies of the invoice for each party with the proper balance due, and can track payments made to a single invoice by multiple parties/vendors.

Can I organize and bill my clients by group?

Yes, TimeNet Law allows you to organize clients and matters into groups, and bill for just those groups. Reports also have group filters.

Can I bill my clients for flat fees?

Yes, TimeNet Law allows you to set any task to an hourly rate or a flat fee rate.

Can I set and track budgets for my client's matters?

Yes, TimeNet Law allows you to give each matter a set budget. You can then see at-a-glance how close you are to reaching the ceiling of that budget, and react accordingly.

Can I schedule automatic deposits to a client's retainer?

Yes, TimeNet Law lets you set up a client for auto-deposit. Simply select the frequency of deposit, amount, and whether the deposit arrangement has a cutoff date or continues indefinitely.

Can I schedule recurring fees on a client's matter?

Can I give users different permissions within TimeNet Law?

Legal Billing and Time Tracking for Lawyers

"A big selling point for our purchase of TimeNet Law for the Mac was the support available. Perry has been fantastic in helping us get the program up and running in our office, as well as making program changes to accommodate our firm’s specific needs such as uploading our logo, networking and personalizing the invoicing. Being able to get a response in short order when experiencing computer problems is critical for our business. We would recommend this billing software for any law firm."
