From 69 customer-discovery interviews with hourly firms.
Three steps. None of them yours.
LegalTime runs the whole loop from raw work to a released bill. You show up for a five-minute review.
Capture, automatically
The moment you open a document, take a call, or start researching, LegalTime is watching the work. Nothing to launch, nothing to remember.
Drafted in your voice
Each task becomes a coded narrative entry written in your own phrasing. Every edit you make teaches it how you write.
Review and revision of share purchase agreement; redline of §4.2 indemnification basket.
Released in one click
Spend about five minutes approving the day. Released entries land in your billing system through your firm's own login.
Five minutes at the end of the day. That’s the whole job.
Every draft lands in one queue with the matter, narrative, hours, and billing code already attached. Skim, fix a word, approve. What used to be a half hour of reconstruction is a quick pass.
- Edit once. It learns your phrasing and matters
- Flags thin or non-compliant descriptions before they’re billed
- Nothing leaves your review until you approve it

It layers on top of everything you already run.
LegalTime captures where the work happens and releases where you bill. No exports, no copy-paste, no new place to live.
Captures where you work
Releases to your billing system
The time data you never had, now that it captures itself.
Because every entry is structured at the source, LegalTime turns a month of work into a clear picture of where the hours actually go.

Private by design, not by policy.
LegalTime is built for work under privilege. The sensitive part of your day stays on your machine, because of how it’s built, not because we promise to be careful.
Raw activity never crosses this boundary
Runs locally
Raw activity is read on your device and never uploaded. Only approved entries leave.
Not a monitoring tool
Drafts are yours alone until you release them. Pause capture anytime; nothing records while paused.
You approve everything
No entry is billed until you say so, and every released entry is auditable end to end.
A DPA with every firm
We never train shared models on your content, and we sign a data-processing agreement before you start.
You shouldn’t have to remember

Every other tool adds a timer, a tab, a habit. LegalTime adds nothing to your day — except the finished entries waiting for you at the end of it.
6:30pm — reconstructing the day from a calendar, a call log, and memory. Guessing at the ten minutes here, the quick redline there.
6:30pm — approving a day that already wrote itself. Every task captured, coded, and phrased the way you’d phrase it.
We built it around what hourly lawyers actually told us.
Real reactions from our customer-discovery calls, anonymized by role and firm while pilots run.
Realization at our firm is somewhere around eighty-five percent in litigation. Most of what we lose is small, the call I forgot, the email I read on the way to court.
My paralegal spends three hours a week on time entry alone. Three hours she could be drafting.
Twenty-five percent of our bills from major carriers get disputed. Our recovery on appeal is around twenty percent. Description quality is not a soft problem.
I have severe ADHD and I am a good lawyer, but timekeeping has been the thing I lose to every quarter.
Estate planning is ten to twelve entries a day, easy. By the time I leave the office I have lost about a third of them.
My descriptions have to match the outside counsel guidelines or the bills come back. That is the part the existing tools never solved.
We set up every firm ourselves.
If you bill by the hour, the day leaks. A ten-minute call, a quick redline, an email answered between meetings — each one is real income, and each one is easy to lose by the time you sit down to rebuild the day from memory. We started LegalTime because that end-of-day reconstruction is a tax every hourly lawyer pays, and no timer has ever made it go away.
We’re small on purpose. We onboard a handful of firms a month and set each one up ourselves, sitting with you to map your matters, your billing codes, and the guidelines your clients hold you to, so the entries read the way your firm already writes them. Book a demo and we’ll show you LegalTime running on a real workday.

The things firms ask first.
It watches the work you already do, drafts a time entry for each task with the matter and billing code attached, and holds everything for your review. At the end of the day you approve, edit, or discard. Approved entries land in your billing system. The whole review takes about five minutes.
No. Drafted entries are visible to you alone until you choose to release them. LegalTime is not a monitoring tool, and we will not build one. You can pause capture at any time, and nothing is recorded while it is paused.
Raw activity never leaves your machine. It is read locally, used to draft your entries, and purged on a rolling basis. The only thing that leaves is the entries you approve, sent to your billing system through your firm’s existing login. We never train shared models on your content, and we sign a DPA with every firm.
There is nothing to adopt. No timer to start, no app to live in, no habit to build. Attorneys work exactly as they did before. The only new behavior is a five-minute review that replaces the half hour of end-of-day reconstruction, and that trade tends to sell itself.
Strong on day one, and better every week you use it. Each correction teaches the system your phrasing, your matters, and your clients’ billing guidelines. Every released entry is auditable, so you can always see what was captured and why.
Clio Manage, MyCase, Filevine, PracticePanther, SurePoint, Centerbase, TimeSolv, and Harvest. If your firm runs something else, tell us on the demo call. We want to hear about it.
