In short
Law firm software development at Athyrium Studio means matter management, deadline docketing with alerts, time tracking and billing, a secure document repository with per-matter permissions, contract management, client intake with conflict checks and a client portal. We design every access rule around client confidentiality, including ABA Model Rule 1.6(c) in the US and GDPR in Spain.
Where risk hides in your firm
- 01
Deadlines live in each attorney's calendar, and no partner sees the full picture.
- 02
Client intake is an email thread, and conflict checks depend on someone's memory.
- 03
Associates log hours on Friday from memory, and invoices miss billable work.
- 04
Clients email for updates because they cannot see their matter anywhere.
What we build for law firms
Deadline docketing
Deadlines calculated from rules your team configures, with escalating alerts and a responsible attorney for each one.
Court monitoring
Scheduled checks of public court records, such as PACER or Colombia's Rama Judicial, with alerts when a new entry appears.
Time tracking and billing
Time entries by matter from desktop or phone, with draft invoices ready for partner review and export to accounting.
Documents and contracts
Templates, version control, e-signatures and a repository with permissions per matter and a log of every download.
Client intake and portal
Intake forms, conflict checks before engagement and a portal where each client sees only their own matters.

Confidentiality rules we design for
Client confidentiality decides how every document is stored and shared, so we design permissions, logs and notifications around these rules from the first sprint.
- ABA Model Rule 1.6(c)US
Requires lawyers to make reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to or disclosure of client information.
- GDPR and LOPDGDDSpain
EU data protection regulation and Spain's Organic Law 3/2018, which apply to law firms operating in Spain.
- Ley 1123 de 2007Colombia
Colombia's Disciplinary Code for Lawyers, which protects professional secrecy over client information.
- Ley 2213 de 2022Colombia
Colombia's rules for technology in court proceedings, including service by email and digital case files.
- Ley 1581 de 2012Colombia
Colombia's personal data law for client, counterparty and witness information.
Questions law firms ask us
How do you protect privileged client information?
We sign an NDA before seeing a single matter, then design access per matter so each attorney sees only what they work on. Documents are encrypted, every view, download and share is logged, and access can be revoked at once. These controls support the reasonable efforts ABA Model Rule 1.6(c) asks firms to make.
Can you integrate with Clio or our current practice management tool?
Yes, when the tool offers an API, as Clio does. Many firms keep their practice management platform and add custom pieces around it, such as an intake flow, a client portal or a reporting layer. If your current tool already covers most of your needs, we will recommend extending it rather than replacing it.
Can the system calculate court deadlines automatically?
Yes, using rules your attorneys define and approve for each jurisdiction and type of proceeding, including court holidays. The system proposes the deadline, assigns a responsible attorney and escalates alerts as the date approaches. A lawyer still confirms each calculated deadline, because a rule set is only as reliable as its review.
Do you work with firms in the US and Latin America?
Yes. We work remotely with firms and legal departments in the US, Colombia, Mexico and Spain. Cross-border firms often need one system that handles US court records, Colombian proceedings under Ley 2213 and client data rules in Spain, with a client portal in both English and Spanish.
Who owns the code and the data?
Your firm does, from day one. Code repositories, hosting accounts and databases are registered to your organization, and we work as invited collaborators whose access you control. For a law firm that also means client files never sit in a vendor account you do not manage.
