MatterLedger
The permanent record of every matter
An audit-grade ledger for every matter: parties, documents, deadlines, time entries, fees — all captured as immutable records with clear lineage.
- Append -only — no silent edits
- 1 Canonical record per matter
- Lineage On every event
MatterLedger is where the firm's history lives. Every event on every matter — documents, deadlines, time entries, fee adjustments — is appended to an immutable log with clear lineage and actor attribution.
The ledger is read by every other legal service. The workspace renders it; the fee meter writes time into it; the signature gate records outcomes against it. One source of truth, infinitely queryable.
Everything MatterLedger handles for you
-
Append-only
Every event is a new record — no silent edits, no lost history.
-
Full lineage
Every record carries actor, reason, and timestamp by default.
-
Cross-service writes
Fee meter, signature gate, and conflict scanner all write here — one canonical record.
-
Fast reads
Optimised for the workspace and client portal reads.
How MatterLedger plugs into the legal stack
MatterLedger is the canonical record. Every service reads from and writes to it instead of maintaining parallel stores.
- MatterWorkspace renders the matter view from the ledger directly.
- FeeMeter writes every time entry and fee adjustment into the ledger.
- eSignTray writes signature outcomes back to the matter record.
- CourtPulse writes court deadlines and filings into the ledger.
