Run your practice like clockwork

Manual task management is time-consuming and cumbersome. With CARET Legal, all your matter-related tasks can be seen in real time and in one place in the Matter Dashboard. Attorneys can set task recurrences, reminders (including email and SMS), and assignor alerts (if the assignee blows the deadline). Plus, they have the ability to comment on tasks and much more.
