Law Firm Client Portal Development

Most portals launch in 10–12 weeks. A basic portal with document sharing and case tracking can ship in around 8 weeks. Builds that include practice management integrations, e-signatures, and billing features typically take the full 12 weeks. We scope everything upfront — no surprises.

Yes. We build API integrations with Clio, MyCase, PracticePanther, and most modern practice management tools. Case data, contacts, documents, and billing sync automatically between systems. If your PM software has an API, we can connect it. If it doesn't, we build import/export workflows.

We use AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS 1.3 in transit, and Supabase Row-Level Security to isolate each client's data at the database level. Role-based access controls ensure only authorized users see specific documents and communications. Every access event is logged for compliance documentation.

Significantly. Email's unencrypted by default, and consumer file-sharing tools weren't built for legal compliance. A custom portal encrypts everything, restricts access by role, logs every interaction, and gives you full control over data residency. Several state bars have issued ethics opinions specifically recommending against consumer-grade tools for privileged documents.

Every build includes 30 days of post-launch support for bug fixes and minor adjustments. After that, we offer ongoing retainer agreements covering feature additions, security updates, and scaling. You own the code — if you want to bring development in-house or switch vendors down the road, nothing stops you.

Custom portals start at $14,000 for core features: document sharing, case tracking, and client authentication. Portals with practice management integrations, e-signatures, billing, and advanced reporting typically run $18,000–$25,000+. We quote fixed fees — no hourly billing surprises.
