Altius Legal: your whole practice in one place
What's inside

Everything a small firm runs on, in one system

Built on SuiteCRM, Altius Legal combines legal billing and trust accounting with a client relationship system for intake, follow-up and communication.

Clients and matters

  • One client, any number of matters, each billed separately
  • Status, practice area, file number and dates on every matter
  • Contacts, notes and documents attached where they belong

Time tracking

  • A timer on every screen: start, pause, post
  • Six-minute increments
  • Start a timer straight from a call or meeting
  • Billable and non-billable side by side

Billing and invoicing

  • Batch invoicing finds unbilled work and drafts the invoices
  • Review, then finalize as sent
  • Branded PDFs with time and expense detail
  • Sent, partly paid, paid and overdue at a glance

Trust accounting

  • Deposits, withdrawals and transfers per matter
  • Running balances from the transaction ledger
  • Client ledger and activity reports
  • Three-way reconciliation

Expenses and costs

  • Filing fees, court costs and disbursements on each matter
  • Categories, vendors, billable or not
  • Costs flow onto invoices automatically

Money Finder

  • Flags billable calls and meetings never logged as time
  • Dashboards for outstanding, overdue and paid invoices
  • Unbilled time and costs, and trust balances held

Intake and relationships

  • Track prospects from first call to signed engagement
  • Calls, meetings and tasks on a shared calendar
  • Every client's contact history kept

Roles and access

  • Attorney, paralegal, intake and admin roles
  • Per-person rates with matter-specific overrides
  • You decide who can bill, edit and report

Coming next

Ask Claude about your practice

Because your matters, time, invoices and trust records already live in one place, a built-in assistant can see the whole picture. Ask in plain English and get a clear answer from your own records.

Read-only by design. It drafts and summarizes; you decide.

Which matters have unbilled time over 30 days old?
Four matters have unbilled time older than 30 days. One also has costs waiting to be billed. Want me to start draft invoices for your review?
Which clients haven't heard from us this month?
What did we bill last quarter, by practice area?
