Business intelligence for Australian law firms

Built for partners, practice managers and fee-earners.

Legal questions
What KPIs should a law firm monitor?+
Billable hours, fee-earner utilisation, realisation, write-offs and matter/practice-area profitability, plus WIP and trust lock-up. Corvana tracks these live from your practice-management and trust-accounting data.
Can Corvana flag matters that are losing money?+
Yes. Matter-level margin updates live and flags matters eroding into write-offs, so partners can intervene before the value is gone.
Does it show trust and WIP together?+
Corvana brings WIP, billed and trust position into one view with lock-up days trending, so cash position is never a month-end surprise.
