New Features
LawPay Integration
Who doesn’t want to get paid faster? Our new LawPay integration allows you to securely:
- Accept payments online
- Share links to a LawPay hosted portal with clients from Neos for both invoices and trust requests
- Set up accounts in the funds tab that are linked to LawPay accounts
- See the payment status (which is updated automatically)
How to use it
Once an invoice or trust request is approved from the invoices section, you can share an invoice with a link to the LawPay payment portal. LawPay sends an email from a preconfigured template with the link to their portal. Clients access the payment portal and pay the invoices or trust request. Value items, invoices, and trust requests are all updated to a status of paid.
Learn more about LawPay (LawPay account needed to use the Neos integration). Sign up with LawPay before October 1 and they'll waive your $20/month fee! Talk to your Assembly account manager for more details.
Client Master Rates
Set a billing rate that will override any tasks or staff specific rate for billable time using the new tab (Billing Rates) under the Contact (previously Provider) screen.
How to use it
Set specific hourly billing rates for any contact in your address book; automatically override the billing rate for all new cases associated with the client. If you have high volume of cases per client, negotiate a rate and set it for all billable hours.
Enhancements
Related Documents
Unlink related documents using the Related documents modal and drag and drop documents into related grids.
Invoices
Now you can send a copy of an invoice by email, void invoices, and preview the invoice using a new sidepane in the Accounting tab.
Settlement Calculator
Capture accurate revenue amounts for larger settlements with a precise settlement calculation when using attorney fee or referral fee percentages. (Users can now add up to 10 decimal places.)
For example: 33.33% of $9,876,543 is $3,291,851.78. However, with a repeating decimal (in this case, 1/3), the value is actually $3,292,181.00. This creates a difference of $329.22.

Mailing Lists
Set a mailing list to “inactive”; add all parties or providers to a mailing list.
