Never Miss a Deadline, Such As When Filing a Bare-Bones Petition

Built-in rules-based calendaring lets you schedule (and reschedule) sequential deadlines and reminders just by calendaring an initial trigger date. Smart alarms remind you of upcoming events so you’re never late or forget which could lead to dismissal of the case.[Less]

Meet all of your deadlines, whether they are for filing certificates of credit counseling, motions for exemption from counseling, form B1 or B21, or supporting schedules of assets, liabilities, income, and expenditures.
If litigation develops, AbacusLaw will track all lawsuit-related deadlines too, such as filing summons, complaints, answers, motions, designations, and appeals.

Eliminate Errors in Documents & Forms

While you won’t use Abacus for Bankruptcy petitions, you will use it all the time to generate all the other documents and forms you use in your practice. Abacus pulls the information from your existing database to complete documents so you don’t have to retype anything. You will reduce errors, improve organization and increase productivity.[less]

In just one click, draft retainer agreements, correspondence, and court or tax forms.
Completed forms and documents are linked to each matter for easy retrieval.
Use our templates and forms, or your own.

Instantly Answer Client Inquiries

Protect Yourself and Know Which Cases Are Most Profitable

You’re always working on multiple cases. Don’t you want to know which cases are costing you more compared to what they are generating in revenue?
If a client decides to terminate your firm mid-case (or files a complaint claiming you failed to communicate or make progress on the matter) you’ll have a complete record of all the time, expense, and communications you had to defend yourself and lien the case.
If you don’t operate under a “no look” fee agreement you must submit a fee application with hours itemized. Abacus easily and thoroughly track all of your time.

AbacusLaw is the only software that can combine multiple practice areas so easily
