A paid invoice opens a case with tasks by itself — the whole client journey on buttons

Clients, offers, invoices, cases and tasks lived in different places, and each client’s journey was pieced together by hand. A client’s check status was easy to lose, and the firm’s finances were kept apart from the cases.

1 click

from a paid invoice to a case with tasks

How it works at reboot legal, a law firm in Berlin

  • 12 steps

    from enquiry to case — on buttons

  • 6 types

    of cases: business, family, IP, labour, real estate, migration

Before

The client journey pieced together by hand

  1. Person

    Write a new enquiry into a separate list

  2. Person

    Check the client and remember where the status is noted

  3. Person

    Draw up a fee offer, then an invoice separately

  4. Person

    After payment, set up the case and its tasks by hand

  5. Person

    Enter income and expenses into a separate spreadsheet

A client’s check status is easy to lose, and finance is not linked to the cases.

After

The whole client journey on buttons

  1. Person

    The enquiry goes into the CRM, client checks are marked right there

  2. Person1 button

    The client accepts — a button creates the invoice

  3. System

    The invoice is paid — a consultation case with tasks opens at once

  4. Person

    After the consultation — a button creates an offer for full representation

  5. System

    Income, expenses and budget show on the dashboard

How it works

  1. 1

    The enquiry goes into the CRM

    A client has five statuses — from incoming enquiry to contract or decline. Client check marks and the history of status changes are kept on the client’s card.

  2. 2

    An offer becomes an invoice

    The lawyer prepares an offer with a fee and a validity period. The client agrees, and one button creates the invoice.

  3. 3

    Payment opens the case

    As soon as the invoice is paid, a consultation with tasks opens by itself. The case has a number, a type and task progress.

  4. 4

    From consultation to full representation

    After the consultation a button creates a new offer for full representation, and the cycle runs through the same steps.

  5. 5

    Finance next to the cases

    Income and expenses, budget by category with percent spent, and a dashboard: this month, last month, the year.

What it is made of

  • Notion

    The whole workspace — entirely in German, the firm’s language.

  • Client CRM

    Enquiries, checks and statuses — the client’s path up to the contract.

  • Cases and tasks

    Open after payment, with a number, type and progress.

  • Finance

    Income, expenses and budget by category on one dashboard.

A good fit if

  • You run a small practice where clients pay for a consultation and then for handling their case.
  • The client journey — enquiry, offer, invoice, work — is pieced together from different places.
  • Your team needs a tool in its own language rather than a separate industry CRM.

Common questions

Is Notion right for a law firm?

For a small practice, yes: clients, offers, cases, tasks and finance in one system in the firm’s language, without a separate legal CRM.

Can it be in another language?

Yes, this workspace is entirely in German — the interface is built in the team’s language.
