For law firms

Every enquiry answered. Every matter moving.

Settr builds your firm one system for intake, conflict checks, retainers, documents and client updates, on your own Microsoft 365, so lawyers stop doing admin and clients stop calling to ask where their file is.

From a 10pm enquiry to an open matter.

A personal injury enquiry that arrives after hours, followed through the system until the client gets their first status update.

  1. 12:41 am, Client: After-hours enquiry on WhatsApp. Got rear-ended on the 401 tonight coming off Keele. My neck is really bad. Do I have a case?

  11. 9:41 am, Your team: Lawyer opened the file. Only a lawyer opens a file. The system never does.

Built from a system running at a personal injury and real estate firm, where it replaced their practice management software.

The work today

Where your team's week goes.

  • Enquiries come in by phone, web form, email and WhatsApp, and the ones after hours go cold.

  • Intake notes, conflict checks and retainers live in four different places.

  • Clients call reception for updates the file already has.

  • Limitation dates and undertakings sit in one person's calendar.

What the system does

One system, built around your firm.

Intake on every channel

Calls, web forms, email and WhatsApp land in one place, with the intake questions for that practice area asked and saved.

Conflict check first

Every new party is checked against everyone on file before the consult is booked.

Consults and retainers

The consult is booked on the right lawyer's calendar, then the retainer goes out for e-signature and is tracked until signed.

Matter files

A signed retainer opens the matter: folders in your own Microsoft 365, the document request sent to the client, the team assigned.

Client updates

Clients get an update at each stage of their file, so reception stops fielding "any news?" calls.

Deadlines

Limitation dates, court dates and undertakings on a shared calendar, with reminders well before each one.

The guarantee

Guaranteed to cost less than the work it replaces.

Before we build, we write down what the work costs you today: the staff hours, the outsourced firm, the software you'd retire. Your system is priced below that number, in writing.

How a build works

You know the cost before we build.

  1. 1

    Map

    We sit with your team and list every task that repeats: who does it, how long it takes, which tools it touches. Then we put a dollar figure on it.

  2. 2

    Design

    One system on paper: what it takes over, what stays with your people, what it connects to. Scope, price and launch date in writing.

  3. 3

    Build

    Built in stages on your own accounts. Your existing records move across and your team gets their logins.

  4. 4

    Launch

    It runs alongside your current process until your team trusts it. Then the old way is switched off.

  5. 5

    Run

    We stay on to maintain it, watch it and add to it as the business changes.

Questions

Questions from law firms

Where does our client data live?

In your own accounts. Matter files and documents are stored in your firm's Microsoft 365, so your records stay with you and under your policies.

Do we have to give up our current software?

No. We can build on top of what you keep, or replace it entirely. That decision comes out of the mapping session, priced against what you pay today.

Who can see what?

Access follows your firm's roles. Lawyers, clerks and reception each see what their job needs.
