Criminal Law Software

Criminal law software is legal software designed to make organising criminal legal matters and running a firm easier, more secure, and more efficient. 

Clio’s criminal law software takes care of the basics, leaving criminal law firms to care of their clients’ cases. 

Client onboarding is reduced down to a single step with Clio’s CRM solutions for legal firms, Clio Grow. Key information is collected once and then applied throughout document-intensive family law workflows. Firm management becomes a breeze. 

With Clio’s criminal law software, criminal defence solicitors can better manage their time, their workload, and their clients.

Criminal law software enables criminal defence solicitors to manage their cases, communications, and deadlines from one single place. 

Thanks to cloud-based matter and document management, criminal law barristers, solicitors, or anyone in a law firm can securely store critical files and access them on the go—whether they’re at the Magistrates Court, Crown Court, in the office, or at their home. 

They can easily assign, manage, and complete all outstanding tasks. 

By integrating key tools (such as Outlook, Google Apps, Box, and Dropbox), criminal law firms can create an interconnected tech ecosystem. This criminal case management system will serve as an all-in-one resource for all witness and character statements, client communications, upcoming appointments, and so on. 

Finally, Clio’s criminal law software’s billing feature and client accounting integrations significantly reduce time spent creating and chasing client invoices. 

Criminal case management systems can indeed make criminal law firms more efficient, accurate, and productive. They take care of low-value, administrative tasks, allowing criminal defence solicitors to focus on what they do best: helping their clients. 

Criminal defence lawyers can store all key documents in one single place. No longer will they have to waste valuable time digging around for the right document, left in the wrong place.

They can dive into all their criminal defence firm’s client communications, deadlines, and workflows in a single cloud-based portal. 

Once they have completed a case, Clio’s criminal law case management software makes it easy for criminal law firms, including criminal law barristers and solicitors, to invoice clients. Plus, our legal aid case management software can even expedite claims to the Legal Aid Agency (England and Wales only). 

The result of all this? Increased firm-wide efficiency—and significantly improved performance. 

Yes—it certainly is. Clio’s criminal case management system utilises bank-grade encryption. We’re dedicated to staying up to date with the latest cybersecurity developments. Clio conducts regular, rigorous security tests, and we’re fully GDPR compliant, helping you to ensure the security of your files and better SRA compliance.

Clio was built with legal professionals in mind, meaning all criminal defence lawyers, including criminal law barristers, can benefit from using it. 

Our criminal case management system allows criminal defence barristers to do more with less effort, providing them with three main benefits: more time, less hassle, and fewer errors. 

With Clio, you can automate low-value tasks and streamline workflows with automated intake forms and document templates, custom fields, and task lists. 

This is especially important given that criminal defence firms are helping their clients during incredibly tough times. Defendants need reassurance—and likely have plenty of questions to ask their criminal defence lawyer. 

By letting Clio improve the time you spend on admin, criminal defence barristers can spend more time with your clients during emotionally challenging periods, instead of on back-end processes. 

With more time and fewer administrative hurdles, criminal defence barristers can focus their energy on what’s important—their clients’ cases. This will lead to fewer errors and missed deadlines and greater peace of mind all around.
