Mac Law Software – The State of Affairs

Apple is booming. Even the most scrutinizing analysts agree that Apple is poised to overtake Microsoft in market cap and market share. We don’t know when, but it will happen.

Attorneys are paying attention. They need powerful computers that just work. They don’t want to be bothered with drivers, tons of updates, viruses, and buggy software that costs them time and money.

Mac OS X is a stable platform. My Mac machine never restarts unless I tell it to. I can’t remember the last time I had a computer crash — it’s been years. Mac OS X has no viruses, has an elegant and easy to understand interface and logical order of things. It is the ideal choice for attorneys who want to use a computer that just gets out of their way and always works.

The problem, however, is a lack of software. There are basic billing applications out there, with very nice user interfaces and lots of options, but these options don’t always apply to lawyers. Lawyers deal with things like trust and escrow funds, and required minimum balances. Lawyers need more advanced reporting features. Lawyers need automatic bookkeeping, advanced invoice tracking, and terminology that makes sense in their minds.

Lawyers want the cutting edge — every feature that is relevant, none that aren’t. Lawyers want mobility. iPhone and iPad apps that go with them. Lawyers don’t want their data stored in the cloud. The data needs to be secured. Stored locally. Kept completely confidential. But the data needs to be accessible while on the go.

Enter TimeNet Law 2.1

TimeNet Law is simply the best timing, invoicing, billing, case management and accounting solution for Mac OS X. The interface is modern; easy to use yet extremely powerful. Full networking is built in — local area networks are as simple as using Apple’s built-in File Sharing, and wide area networks can use several free third party options, including Dropbox, to ensure that data is accessible while on the go, always current, and kept completely secure.

iPhone and iPad companion apps are in development, TimeNet Law itself is currently in rapid development, and is gaining a strong user base. Already hundreds of law firms are happy to have found it.
