About Brief Accounting

Time, billing and accounting for law firms

Brief Accounting, from Brief Legal Software, joins time recording, billing and accounting in one program for the legal market. The company says it was custom-designed for the contemporary law firm and developed specifically for firms on the Mac, and its site now says the program works on Windows too, or on both together.

Why a law firm would use it

The vendor describes the software as powerful, flexible and easy to use. Putting time entries, client bills and the firm's accounts in a single package means a lawyer's recorded work flows into invoices and into the financial records without being typed again in another system.

Moving from other legal software

Brief Legal Software invites firms to ask about converting from PCLaw, esiLaw and other applications. The offer of conversion help matters to firms that already have years of data in a legacy product and want to change without losing it.

Brief Accounting is filed under trust accounting software, which fits a legal practice that holds client money and must account for it separately from its own funds.
