About Brief Legal Software

Brief Legal Software builds accounting software for law firms from Vancouver, British Columbia, and has done so since 1985. Its program, Brief Accounting, brings timekeeping, client billing, trust accounting and office bookkeeping together and runs on Mac, Windows or a mixed network. Customers are law firms across North America, from sole practitioners to multi-office practices.

What Brief Legal Software does

  • Invoice formats: consolidated and task-based LEDES billing, with rates set by timekeeper, client or matter.
