Our Family Law Software Features

Inside CARET Legal, each of these practice management features can be customized to fit the processes of a typical family law firm.

Case Management

Family law case management software helps you organize all client and case information in one place. From custom intake forms for new clients to document management (e.g., divorce petitions or custody agreements) and task management for case milestones, CARET Legal ensures nothing falls through the cracks.

Legal Calendaring

Never miss a court date or filing deadline. CARET’s legal calendaring feature integrates with your case workflows, automatically adding key dates (court hearings, mediation sessions, etc.) and sending reminders. You can share calendars with clients or co-counsel securely, so everyone stays informed. This reduces the risk of missed appearances or appointments – a must in family law where rescheduling can be costly and emotionally taxing.

Time & Billing Activities

Capture every billable minute and simplify billing – even for complex arrangements. CARET Legal’s time tracking and billing tools let you record time with one click and generate invoices in seconds. The system supports trust accounting for retainers and even split billing between parties when needed, so you can handle scenarios like divorce fee divisions effortlessly. Plus, with an online payment integration, clients can settle bills faster, improving your firm’s cash flow.
