Elite ProLaw is a comprehensive legal practice management software designed to streamline the operations of law firms, corporate legal departments, and government agencies. It integrates case and matter management, docketing, timekeeping, billing, and accounting into a single, cohesive platform.
This holistic approach allows legal professionals to manage their entire practice efficiently, ensuring that all aspects of their work are interconnected and accessible through a unified system.
ProLaw does not natively run in the cloud as a SaaS (Software as a Service); however, ProLaw has been effectively run in the cloud for law firms across the United States and Canada on Forum Info-Tech (FIT) LevelCloud since 2010.
Thomson Reuters was an early adopter of running ProLaw on FIT LevelCloud, and now Elite hosts their own ProLaw in the cloud on Forum Info-Tech’s FIT LevelCloud.
