Wise Owl Legal Practice Management Software

What It Does

Wise Owl Legal is a cloud-based practice management product for Australian law firms. It combines matter and contact management, time recording, legal billing, document management and trust accounting in one system. The trust accounting module handles IOLTA/trust reconciliation and is built to be readable by non-accountants. It integrates with QuickBooks Online and Xero so external accountants can work in familiar tools, and connects to Microsoft Outlook.

The vendor positions it as an alternative to legacy Australian products such as FilePro, LexisNexis PCLaw and Cabenet.
