There’s No Hiding The Ball Here!
Here Is The Tech I Use In My Solo Law Firm.
A Few Of My Favorite Things…
Asana. I love having everything in one place and my paralegal and I always have a snapshot of what needs to be done and when.
Project Management
I use Smith AI. This is a great way to ensure your phones get answered while reducing distractions.
Virtual Receptionist
I currently use MyCase (I’ve previously used Smokeball, Practice Panther, and Clio).
Billing Software
I use Findlaw for my law firm, but starting out, I used Squarespace. They have amazing designs and it’s only like $120/year!
Website
Pay for the Adobe Pro. Totally worth it.
PDFs
Virtual Phone Number
Grasshopper. Such a life saver! I can use my personal number and through the Grasshopper app, I can call and text clients through my work’s virtual phone number.
Calendar
Google Calendar. Hands down. The best calendar system ever.
Calendaring System
Calendly
Cloud Storage
Dropbox. Hands down. Pay for the business version.
Fax
Yes, people and companies still fax :) Metrofax has been great.

In this video, I talk about what my expenses were and how I opened my law firm on a shoestring budget.
While this video is from 2022, it still has valuable information to help you as you put together your budget for your law firm.
