FAQ

1. How are legal fees calculated automatically?

The Lawyer Fee table uses a formula field.

Input the Hourly Rate for the lawyer.
Input the Working Hours (or Duration) in the Service Information.
The system automatically multiplies these values to generate the total billing amount for that record.

2. How does the client receive case updates?

The template includes a "Case Status Change Notifications" automation.

Ensure the client's email is listed in the Contacts table.
When you update the Status field in the Cases table (e.g., from "Discovery" to "Trial"), the automation triggers an email to the linked client with the latest progress.

3. How do I see all cases assigned to a specific lawyer?

Go to the Lawyer Information table.
Locate the lawyer's profile.
The Linked Cases column will display every active and closed case assigned to them. You can also group the Cases table by "Lawyer" to see a segmented view.

4. Can I track time spent on specific tasks?

Yes. Use the Service Information table to record granular details.

Create a new record for the task (e.g., "Document Review").
Link it to the relevant Case.
Enter the Date and Duration. This ensures transparency when generating billing statements.
