Documents that start with the right matter data
Our software helps legal teams build documents from approved templates and clause banks, then carry key matter details through the drafting process. Your team works from structured information that fits the file and the task, so names, dates and reference fields are typed once.
That matters in Rosebank and in firms working across Johannesburg, Pretoria, Cape Town, Durban and Bloemfontein. The same setup also supports firms serving Gqeberha, Polokwane and Mbombela, where practices often need a consistent way to prepare routine work without losing control of the final document.
- Guided questionnaires for each matter type
- Merge fields that pull in approved matter data
- Version control for tracked drafting and review
- Secure cloud storage with POPIA-aware handling
What we arrange for your practice
LawMachine supplies the building blocks for a document workflow that feels familiar to a law office, but moves with less rework. We map templates, organise clause banks, shape questionnaire logic and set up the review and sign-off steps that suit the way your practice handles files.
Typical output includes contracts, letters, leases, wills and conveyancing paperwork. Some firms want a tighter drafting path for standard matters, while others need room for more detailed review before anything is issued to a client or outside party.
- Onboarding planning and template mapping
- Clause bank setup and questionnaire design
- Document migration from existing matter files
- Workflow tuning for review and sign-off
Built for small law firms
The platform is designed around legal drafting. That means the structure is set up for matter-based work, common legal document types and the need to keep approved wording in the right place while still allowing controlled changes where a file calls for it.
Small firms often need a clean handover between the person collecting matter details, the person checking the draft and the person signing it off. We set up those steps so the process stays readable for the team, even when the file count rises and different users touch the same matter.
- Admin training for people managing templates and users
- User training for staff handling day-to-day drafting
- Support for practices with mixed levels of legal systems experience
- Setup that keeps the working file and the template separate
