We’re thrilled to announce that TimeNet Law 4 is here! Our biggest update in 20 years, TimeNet Law 4 is a major overhaul of the entire system. We’ve poured over every detail to make sure TimeNet Law is easier to use and more powerful than ever!
20 years is a long time, and in that time, TimeNet Law has grown from a simple time tracking app into a full-blown law firm management suite. We’ve added hundreds of features over the years, and inevitably that comes with complexity.
While TimeNet Law 4 brings some huge new features, the behind-the-scenes story is one of refinement. We’ve re-thought the interface of practically every window, to make it less cluttered, more focused, and easier to navigate.
The first thing you’ll notice is the new icon. It feels right at home on macOS Big Sur.
The main window’s toolbar has been refined. Creating new clients, matters, timers and slips is now done under one unified Create New button. Your client and matter list has been given more room to breathe, and you can now see important matter details in each row.
The main window also has the brand new Dashboard, which gives you access to your tasks for the day and week, and the all new Launchpad with intelligent task surfacing. You can now create tasks and run timers right from the main window, too.
Settings windows have been decluttered. QuickHelp now lets you hover over any item to get details about how that feature works. This allowed us to remove explainer labels and make buttons and checkboxes more concise. The end result is easier to navigate and understand.
There’s a lot more: Timers now share a unified design. They can be directly interacted with by clicking on them to start or stop them. Entry windows now share a unified design with larger text fields and easily recognizable visual labels. And different areas of the program are color-coordinated, so you’ll always know if you’re in a report, a matter, the payment center, or your task manager.
Beyond Refinement
TimeNet Law 4 is also loaded with new features. Let’s dig in to some of those now.
Task Management ☑️
Mange tasks, events, and deadlines all in one place. Stay on top of everything with reminders, and bill tasks to your client with one click. Search for tasks and organize them with tags. Run the timer or mark them off right from the task manager. Now you can plan your day and do your timekeeping in one step. Easy.
Hello, Calendar ⚡️
The brand new Calendar View lets you see all tasks, events, and document deadlines in one place. Create, edit and delete tasks, and log your time faster than ever right from the calendar. Your time never looked so good.
What’s Next? Launchpad 🚀
As you create tasks, events and deadlines, Launchpad tames the chaos. Always know what’s coming up, and what to work on next. We’ll surface the things that matter most, when they matter, so you can stay focused and rocket through your day.
The Biggest Change You’ll Never See ☁️
TimeNet Law 4 has a brand new sync engine. Now you and your team can work together in the same matter with no risk of data conflicts. And larger database will load and run reports even faster. This new sync engine paves the way for new things we’re excited to bring to TimeNet Law in the coming months.
Much More ✨
A search bar in matter windows to quickly find entries, smart groups for clients and tasks, new report features, a refined Payment Center that makes it easier than ever to enter new payments and find and filter your client payment history, compatibility improvements for M1 Macs, and numerous other fixes and improvements.
