What JuriStack covers


Seventeen modules, written for South African practice. Each one is in the product today — where a module is narrower than its label suggests, the feature pages say so.

  • Matters & Clients

    One register for every client, matter and instruction — numbered in your firm’s own format, with a timeline of what happened and who did it.

  • Case Bundles

    Ten ready-built South African playbooks — RAF, medical negligence, divorce, estates, criminal defence — track the checklist, the stages and the claim, and chase clients for outstanding documents automatically.

  • Tasks & Scheduling

    Due dates and reminders, a firm-wide view for partners, a shared diary with conflict warnings, and drag-and-drop boards that move matters through their stages.

  • Time & Billing

    Fee earners capture activities against the matter and the system prices them from that file’s fee arrangement — or from the gazetted court tariff — through a WIP review gate to invoice.

  • Trust Accounting

    A trust ledger per matter, with bank-statement import, auto-matching, Section 86(4) interest handling and every reconciliation run kept as a record.

  • Conveyancing

    Transfer and bond matters with parties, dates and automatic stage progression, transfer-cost quotes and a client-facing tracker.

  • Debt Collection (NCA)

    Collections that follow the National Credit Act sequence: Section 129 notices, payment arrangements, judgments and warrants of execution.

  • FICA & Compliance

    Verification checklists per client type, with every document captured, dated and chased before it expires.

  • Documents & Drafting

    Documents held against the matter they belong to with version history, and templates with merge fields that generate DOCX or PDF on your letterhead.

  • Digital Signatures

    Send a document for signature with the fields placed on the page, verify the signer, and keep a signed PDF with a full event log.

  • Communications

    E-mail, SMS and WhatsApp from one hub, with the thread and the delivery result recorded against the client.

  • HR & Payroll

    Staff records, structure and leave, plus a South African payroll run with PAYE, UIF and SDL from statutory rate tables.

  • Reports

    Financial, matter and client reports read from the same ledger your fee earners write to, exportable to PDF or Excel.

  • Firm Intelligence

    The partner cockpit — a firm scorecard against the period before and against targets you set, and a scorecard per fee earner. Restricted to partners and directors.

  • Legal Research

    Search South African case law and legislation from inside the matter, keep what you find on the file, and read a judgment back as a FIRAC analysis.

  • Access Control

    Roles assembled from a granular permission catalogue, with time-limited overrides, absence cover, matter-level ethical walls and two-factor sign-in.

  • Security Centre

    Your firm’s own view of account activity — alerts on the patterns that matter, a permanent event log, and thresholds you set yourself.
