Webinar highlights

Why use Legl Pay?

Many firms still rely on:

  • Manual bank transfers

  • Invoices sent separately from onboarding

  • Offline reconciliation and spreadsheet tracking

This often leads to delays, missed payments, and poor visibility.

Legl Pay allows you to:

  • Request payments directly through Legl

  • Give clients a simple, secure payment journey

  • Track payment status in real time

  • Reduce time spent chasing and reconciling payments

  • Maintain a clear audit trail for every transaction


How Legl Pay works

Setting up payments

Legl Pay can be used for a range of payment types, including:

  • Initial onboarding payments

  • Matter-related fees

  • Ad hoc or follow-up payment requests

Admins can configure Pay as part of the firm’s setup, ensuring it’s available to relevant users and workflows.


Creating a payment request

From within Legl, users can:

  1. Select the relevant client or matter

  2. Create a payment request

  3. Enter:

    • Amount

    • Description or reference

    • Any relevant context for the client

  4. Send the request via:

    • Email sent by Legl (with automated reminders), or

    • A shareable payment link

Once sent, the payment request is tracked automatically.


Client payment experience

Clients receive a secure payment request that:

  • Clearly shows the amount and reason for payment

  • Is branded to your firm

  • Allows payment via supported payment methods

  • Requires no Legl login

Once payment is completed, both the client and your firm are notified.


Tracking and reconciliation

Within Legl, you can:

  • See the status of all payment requests (sent, paid, overdue)

  • View payment history by client or matter

  • Access timestamps and payment references

  • Download or export records for reconciliation

This removes the need for manual follow-ups or cross-checking bank statements.


Compliance and audibility

Legl Pay supports your compliance obligations by:

  • Keeping payments linked directly to the relevant client or matter

  • Recording who created and sent each request

  • Logging when payments were completed

  • Maintaining a clear, auditable record for reviews or inspections


Common firm workflows

Firms commonly use Legl Pay to:

  • Request payment immediately after onboarding

  • Collect fees before progressing to the next stage of work

  • Send follow-up payment requests without leaving Legl

  • Reduce delays caused by separate invoicing processes
