## Reviews

### "Hands down the best legal billing software I have ever used" — 4.0/5

> **Martin M** | *20 September 2019* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: PCLAW has the best interface, once you've learned how to use it it is very easy to use, with a lot of features. Very easy to integrate with various insurance carrier portals. Easy to generate reports.
> 
> **Cons**: Somewhat of a learning curve. Can be expensive if you're adding many licensed users.
> 
> I have found PCLAW to be the best solution for smaller law firms, where numerous timekeepers may work on a particular matter.

-----

### "PCLaw is no longer the best Legal Matter Management software" — 3.0/5

> **Leslee** | *22 October 2024* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: PC Law used to be the gold standard for law practice matter management and accounting.

### "Reliable Legal Accounting Software with Room for Modernization" — 5.0/5

> **Shreyas** | *7 April 2025* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It integrates time tracking, billing, and trust accounting into a single, easy-to-use platform. It’s designed specifically for law firms, so everything from matter management to client trust compliance, is tailored to legal workflows.
> 
> **Cons**: The user interface feels a bit outdated and can be unintuitive, especially for new users.

### "It was an ok program" — 4.0/5

> **Leah** | *11 July 2023* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It was easy to enter information into PCLaw and we used it for almost 20 years.
> 
> **Cons**: There were lots of bugs within PCLaw.  We used it for a long time and we just accepted that these were going to be issues and would work around them.  The main issue within PCLaw was with generating Ledes invoices.  PCLaw did not give you the ability to generate them correctly, so I would have to go in and manually tweak all of the invoice files that it generated or sometimes completely redo them on my on outside of the software.
> 
> It was an ok program and got the job done but there are easier programs out there to utilize.
