Family Law Case Management Software for UK Firms
- Details
- Written by: Legal Workspace
Legal Workspace is family law case management software for UK firms, with case fields for 25 family matter types, private matters and billing for £50 per user.
Family matters combine detailed financial information, arrangements for children, court timetables and, often, safeguarding concerns. Clients are going through one of the hardest times of their lives, and they need their solicitor to be organised and discreet.

Legal Workspace gives family lawyers case fields built for this work, covering 25 family matter types, so children, finances, hearings and protective orders are recorded properly on every file. Sensitive matters can be kept private, and time, bills and client ledgers sit on the same matter.

Family Law Case Management Features
Record children and finances in detail, keep court dates under control and protect sensitive files, with clear billing on every matter.
Children and finances in structured fields
Repeatable fields for children, assets, liabilities and income keep financial disclosure and child arrangements organised, instead of scattered across notes and spreadsheets.
Court hearings and key dates
Record hearings, directions and filing deadlines against each matter, with multiple reminders by email or text to fee earners and clients so no date is missed.
Private matters for sensitive cases
Domestic abuse, care proceedings and child abduction cases need strict control. Fee earners can mark any matter as private so only the people working on it can open it.
Secure document exchange with clients
Clients can upload financial documents and evidence through the secure client portal, and you can share documents back, without relying on email attachments.
Clear, accurate billing
Time is recorded in 6-minute units, and draft bills can be checked before they become invoices, so worried clients receive clear and accurate bills every time.
Your own templates and e-signatures
Build your own letter templates with client details filled in automatically, and send documents for e-signature at no extra cost, with signed copies filed to the matter.

Case fields built for family law
Each family matter type in Legal Workspace has its own case fields, so the details that matter are captured in a structured way rather than buried in notes. Depending on the matter, you can record:
- Case overview and relationship details
- Parties and children
- Child arrangements and parental responsibility
- Assets, liabilities, and income and financial disclosure
- Financial remedy proceedings
- Domestic abuse and protective orders
- Mediation
- Pre-nuptial, post-nuptial and separation agreements
- Adoption, care proceedings and surrogacy
- International family law and child abduction
- Court hearings, experts and reports
Something missing? If you need a matter type that isn't listed, you can add your own and create a set of custom fields for it, so Legal Workspace fits the way your firm works.
