Looking for the right software for your law firm?
Choosing legal software is a significant decision. The wrong choice costs time, money, and disruption. The right one becomes invisible: it just works, and your team stops thinking about it.
ALT Consulting provides vendor-neutral software advice for law firms. We've helped hundreds of firms evaluate their options, we know which platforms hold up under real legal workloads, and nobody pays us to steer you toward any particular one.
How we help
Clarify Your Goals
Before recommending anything, we help you define what you actually need, not what a vendor's sales deck says you need. We look at how your firm operates today and where the friction is.
Narrow Down Your Requirements
We identify the tools and features that align with your goals, firm size, practice areas, and existing stack. Practical fit, not feature lists.
Receive Actionable Recommendations
You leave with clear, specific recommendations you can act on, not a spreadsheet of 40 options to evaluate yourself.
Most firms go from first call to shortlist in one conversation.
Want implementation, not just advice?
Software advice tells you what to choose. If you also want it configured, rolled out, and adopted by your team, that's what ALT Care Plus is for. Our Managed Success plan includes all-inclusive legal tech setup and support, 1:1 technology coaching, and ongoing staff training.
Questions we hear most often
"Which AI tools can we actually use without risking client confidentiality?"
"We're paying for three tools that overlap. What can we consolidate?"
"Are we underusing Clio, or do we need something else?"
"Will this integrate with the tools we already use?"
"Leads and intake follow-ups fall through the cracks. Is there software for that?"
These are exactly the kinds of questions worth talking through before you commit. Get advice on yours →
