We’ve introduced several major updates across Lawcus to help firms work with better visibility, smoother workflows, and more control across matters, time, tasks, billing, documents, reports, and client collaboration. Here’s what’s new:
Enhancements
- Release Updates in Lawcus: A new Release icon is available in the top navigation bar. Users can view recent product updates, video walkthroughs, release notes, and release history.
- Intake Form Submission Export: Intake form response data can now be included in the Full Backup export.
- Confido Surcharge Settings: Confido surcharge settings are now applied more accurately to invoices and payment links.
- Client Portal Secure Messages: Secure messages sent to a contact now appear correctly in the Client Portal when the matter is shared with that contact.
- User Settings Interface: The User Settings page has been updated with a cleaner layout. Users can find and update their personal preferences more easily.
- Merge Tags in Email Template Subject Lines: Email template subject lines now support merge tags. Firms can include matter or client details in the subject automatically.
- File Upload Improvements: File uploads in Expense and Intake forms now show clearer progress. Intake forms also handle incomplete or interrupted uploads more reliably.
- Created and Modified Tracking: Invoices, Matters, and Leads now include Created Date, Created By, Modified Date, and Modified By fields. These fields are available in list views and related reports.
- Improved List Views: Contacts, Matters, and Leads now use the updated MUI Grid experience for improved list view performance and usability.
- Profile Picture Upload Enhancement: Users can now upload a profile picture and crop it directly inside Lawcus before saving. This makes it easier to get the right fit without resizing the image outside the application.
- Description Field Special Character Issue Fixed: We fixed an issue where Description fields on forms were not handling special characters correctly. Description fields now support special characters properly, ensuring text is saved and displayed as expected.
Bug Fixes
This month’s release includes 40 bug fixes and improvements across 10 key Lawcus modules, including Matters, Contacts and Leads, Tasks and Calendar, Billing, Client Portal, Reports, Documents, Settings, Workflows, and Events.
These updates improve reliability, data accuracy, record visibility, billing consistency, portal access, and the overall user experience across Lawcus.
