Filed

The daily overview, drawn with sample data.

Most firms run on email, spreadsheets and memory.

Case files in too many places

Emails, spreadsheets and folders on three different computers. Finding one order takes longer than it should.

Billing kept in spreadsheets

Hours go unrecorded, invoices go out late, and working out what a client owes is done by hand.

Client updates lost in email

Clients write in again and again for the next date, and nobody is sure which message is the latest.

No view of the team's day

Who is in court today, who has time, and which tasks are late: partners find out by asking around.

One Brief keeps all of it in one place.

What One Brief does

Daily overview: Today's hearings, meetings and tasks due, on one screen, for each person.
Court tracking with eCourts: Link a High Court or district court case by its CNR, and its status, hearing dates and orders stay up to date.
Cause list on your letterhead: A daily cause list of your firm's hearings, ready to print or save as a PDF.
Time, invoices and payments: Record billable time against a matter, raise GST invoices, record payments and see what each client owes.
Case chat: Messages are kept on the matter they belong to, with separate threads for the team and for the client.
Who is where: Associates mark themselves in office, in court or on leave, and partners see it on the team page.
Access by role: By default associates see the matters they are on and clients see only their own. Partners see the whole firm.
Works with Claude or ChatGPT: Ask an AI assistant about your matters. It sees only what you can see, and risky changes wait for you to confirm.

How a linked case stays up to date

Link a case by its CNR once. Twice a day, at 7 AM and 7 PM, One Brief asks eCourts for a fresh copy of the cases that need it, timed around their hearings. The firm sees the result on the case, on Today in Court and in the morning email.
