What Juris does

Juris is a financial management software platform purpose-built for law firms in the United States, providing integrated timekeeping, billing, e-billing, accounting, accounts receivable, trust accounting, budgeting, and conflict-checking capabilities. The platform is built on a Microsoft and SQL Server technology stack and consists of three products: Juris (the core financial management system), Juris Suite (an add-on module comprising Time & Expense, Reporting, Budgeting, Business Intelligence, and Collections), and Juris Go (a mobile and web application for time and expense tracking with voice-to-text and receipt capture). Juris also integrates with LawPay for native payment processing and supports LEDES electronic billing formats, including LEDES98BI. The product originated as a pioneer in DOS-era legal billing software and has been continuously developed, with major releases including version 4.0 (January 2023), 4.2, and 4.3 (October 2025), as well as a web expansion of Juris Go (June 2025).

Juris is not an independent company but a product line operated by LexisNexis, the Legal & Professional division of RELX Inc., a publicly traded global information and analytics conglomerate listed on the London Stock Exchange (ticker: REL). The product serves a horizontal range of law firm customers, from solo practitioners and small firms to mid-market and enterprise firms, addressing pain points around billable time capture, billing accuracy, cash flow acceleration, trust accounting compliance, and financial visibility for firm leadership.

Juris operates a subscription-based revenue model with recurring software licenses for Juris, Juris Suite, and Juris Go, complemented by tiered support packages (Basic at 1 hour/month, Silver at 3 hours/month, Gold at 5 hours/month) and a professional services practice offering annual consulting plans ranging from 15 to 100 hours. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The go-to-market motion is primarily direct enterprise field sales through LexisNexis's sales organization, supplemented by inside sales, an active content marketing program (Business of Law blog, Tuesday Topic webinars, YouTube video library), and demand generation across LinkedIn, Facebook, and X. Customer support is delivered via a dedicated toll-free line (1-877-377-3740) and email ([email protected]). The company is headquartered in Brentwood, United States, and operates exclusively in the US market.
