Legal Project Management
Apply the firm's Legal Project Management (LPM) framework at scale across matters with task lists, dashboards, kanban and automated reporting.
The Challenge
Applying consistent legal project management across all matters requires standardized scoping, budgeting, resource planning, and progress tracking. Without a unified platform, LPM frameworks remain theoretical guidance rather than operational practice. Teams create custom spreadsheets for each matter, partners lack portfolio visibility into budget variance and resource allocation, and clients receive inconsistent status reporting. Junior lawyers struggle to apply LPM principles without structured workflows, while knowledge management efforts fail to capture proven playbooks for reuse across similar matters.
How Lupl Solves This
Lupl embeds LPM principles directly into matter workflows from intake through close. Create template matters with pre-built workstreams that reflect your firm’s proven approach for each matter type. Custom workstreams track phases, milestones, deliverables, and resource assignments. Automations send milestone notifications, trigger status reports on schedule, and alert when things go off track. Real-time dashboards provide portfolio-wide visibility into matter progress, resource utilization, performance, and delivery timelines. Teams can visualize workflows as kanban boards to manage work in progress, identify bottlenecks, and optimize throughput across the practice.
