Owner Legal Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great Deal" April 3, 2019 5.0 See above Pros I would highly recommend Time59. Like most of these types of programs, it takes a little time to get up to speed, but once you do it is a very effective tool. Some parts are a little counterintuitive (to me at least), but reprrsentative is always very responsive in answering questions by email. The product is reasonably priced, unlike the competition. Which charges an arm and a leg. Cons Setting up projects and using timekeepers is still a little confusing Review Source CC Colleen C. Attorney / Firm Owner Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I stumbled on this billing program when I opened my new office. I could not be more pleased." April 12, 2018 5.0 It is very efficient and user friendly! Pros It is SO easy to use. The few times I've needed customer support I received an immediate response (even after hours or on the weekend!) with a quick and easy answer to my question. This program also takes MUCH less time to fix input errors than my old billing program. Cons I can't think of a thing! I hate billing and this software makes it as painless as possible. I highly recommend this software! Review Source KS Kimberleee S. Used the software for: ### "Great Billing Program for Solo Practitioner" March 19, 2015 4.0 Program is easy to set up and use for those of us who are not extremely tech savvy. The process of entering time and expenses, creating invoices, entering receipts is easy to do . Pricing is very reasonable. Invoices can be printed and mailed or sent via email. A link to the client's account can be included in the email. The account history available to the client includes all of the prior bills and payments and I haven't been able to figure out how to limit that. So there are a few small quirks such as this and also some billing features that I wish I could improve. They are not significant enough for me to have any desire to change programs though. I've contacted customer service a few times with questions and suggestions and they've been very responsive. Seem to always be working to improve the program. Can't imagine a better billing program for the solo/small firm, especially for the price. Review Source NG Noble G. Attorney Used the software for: 2+ years ### "I've been using Time59 for two years now. It is the best value on the market. " April 21, 2018 5.0 Pros Great value. Great customer support. Overall great product. I have been highly satisfied with the performance and capabilities of Time59. I use it everyday. I always receive a quick response to support issues. Cons It would be helpful if Time59 would sync with Quickbooks. This would be a huge time saver for my office staff. In my opinion, this is the only function Time59 is lacking. Review Source TN Thomas N. Sole Proprieter Used the software for: ### "Great solo and small firm solution for billing" March 23, 2015 5.0 I first started computer time and billing with a dos version of Timeslips. It was exciting because it was affordable , and when you needed help, your call might be answered by the guy who developed the software. Time59 is like that. They have a passion for building the best and improving it, and giving the kind of customer service which only we old timers remember. Two of my biggest concerns were cost increases later and my data if I decide to stop subscribing. My rate won't ever change and, if I stop subscribing, the program an data is still available to me , I simply can't add any data. I don't see how you can be any fairer than that. I found it easy to get started with the free trial, and subscribed after two weeks. I like that I can enter time, and work on billing, from wherever I have an Internet connection. I love that I don't have to maintain a software installation and concern myself with compatibility issues. I like the simplicity and flexibility of the billing process. I don't have to "finalize" and can bill one, or a group. I do a lot of real estate closings and have a lot of client trust deposits and disbursements. Entering multiple entries for a single client is not as easy as I would like, but I understand that is being worked on. Also if you generate a bill which, by its length has nothing but one line on the second page, you can not force it to print on one page, or spread it evenly over two pages. There is not a single thing I miss in leaving Timeslips. One of the best decisions I have made in running my practice. Review Source DB Diane B. attorney Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent product. I have been using it for several years and no complaints." April 12, 2018 5.0 Monthly billing program for law office. Pros Easy to use and customer service is very responsive, This is the first billing program in 30 years of practice that i have been happy with! Cons I have never figured out the interest option and sending out bills without any current activity could be easier - I end up hand calculating interest and adding the amount in as an activity. Review Source MM Maryn M. Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Customer for Life" November 11, 2022 5.0 Perfect - great system, great customer service Pros Time59 is easy to use, intuitive, robust and if you have a question, \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] answers immediately (unheard of these days!) and always has an answer! Cons I have no complaints about this software. It's perfect for a sole practitioner or small firm. The best part is the company \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] who answers the phone immediately and always has the answer. It's really unbeatable especially for attorneys who don't have a team of IT help behind them. Review Source MS Mark S. Used the software for: ### "Time 59 -- Making Law Practice Management Great Again" May 9, 2016 5.0 I am a Chicago solo practitioner who has worked at law firms ranging from 18 to 1400 lawyers during the past 36 years. Going out on my own, one of my greatest concerns was finding a reasonably price billing software that would let me track and bill fees and expenses. I did a lot of reading about different programs, and picked Time 59 for a trial. It exceeded my expectations. It is amazing how fast I can generate .pdf's of bills and email them out in just a couple of hours. Team 59 also lets you monitor work in progress. When a litigation client asks where its fees stand for the month, I can send them a copy and paste of the work in progress summary screen in 3 minutes. Of course, you can also see your A/R at a glance for managing collections. Time 59 is an indispensable component of my practice and, as geeky as this might sound, Time 59 is not only easy but fun to use. (Who ever would have thought that using billing software could be fun?). Finally, the developer, Chris Monaghan, makes himself totally available for any questions and suggestions. Review Source MS Michael S. Owner Used the software for: ### "The absolute best product for a small to medium sized law firm" January 22, 2016 5.0 I have been an attorney since 1997. I have worked at large law firms and medium sized law firms in New York. Now I have my own firm in Miami, Florida. This is the only software that actually "works" for me and my firm. I have tried many other software programs but they all are confusing and suffer from bloat. Time59 is exactly what we needed. It took about 5 minutes to get up and running and we haven't stopped using it since. Now we capture all of our time without wasting time clicking through screens to perform what should be simple tasks. I know that the more people that learn about Time59 the more it is going to become the go-to program for attorneys at small to medium sized firms. From the first time I tried it it was the perfect fit for me and my office. I know that if it works this well for me it will also be the perfect fit for other law firms. I can 't say enough about this software and I look forward to all upcoming upgrades. Unquestionably 5 Stars! Review Source MC Marisha C. Owner/Attorney Used the software for: ### "Great biling for solo practitioners and very responsive" March 19, 2015 5.0 I first found out about Time59 from reading some article in a bar journal years ago. I jumped in both feet and Chris has been great and so responsive with customer service. If I had questions about how something functions or suggestions based on how my practice works and what I would like to see, he is willing to listen to ideas to make Time59 work better for practitioners. I have screwed things up in my billing (accidentally) but Chris was willing to walk me through it step-by-step to fix the problem. I am very pleased with the service I get and the value. The ability to just email my clients their invoice is easy-peasy; and now the new flat rate billing that keeps track of time is great. If it will just have a timer/stop-watch running in the background to keep track of actual time spent on a matter, that would be the icing on the cake! Thanks, this is great. Review Source MC Mary C. Owner Used the software for: ### "Great for solo practitioner seeking simple solutions" March 18, 2015 5.0 I reviewed a number of software tools for invoicing and tracking time. I do a lot of flat rate billing and only a little litigation. I like that I can email statements from the "dashboard" and that this is cloud-based and very affordable. I also appreciate that if I have a problem and I call for help, I end up talking with the designer, who is responsive to requests about how to improve the product. If you want a straight forward and competitively priced produce, I would recommend this one. Review Source GN Gini N. Principal Used the software for: ### "A great service and great customer service!" March 16, 2015 5.0 I'm a solo attorney and I've used Time59 for many years (since at least early 2007 and possibly since 2006) with virtually no glitches (except for an occasional glitch if I did not understand how something worked). If there has been any glitch I have emailed Chris directly and he amazingly quickly and personally has responded every time about it, and it got fixed. I recommend it to colleagues whenever asked, and am very grateful it is one of my services. Review Source JP Jeffery P. Owner Used the software for: ### "Highly Recommended" March 17, 2015 5.0 I have been using Time59 for the past 8 years and highly recommend it. It is very easy to set up a new client and very efficient to use. The customer support has also been first rate. Every year, it seems that the product gets better as new innovations are added. If you are looking for a straight-forward system to track your time and expenses and then efficiently bill your clients, look no further than Time 59. Review Source TA Tera A. Office Manager Used the software for: ### "Affordable and Efficient Attorney Billing Software" March 19, 2015 5.0 Our civil litigation law firm started using Time59 from day one, a time when there were three lawyers and a secretary with 60 cases. It was easy to use, affordable and we got immediate help from customer service when needed. We now have over 800 cases, 12 lawyers and 8 paralegals. Time59 is still our choice for billing software. We could not be more pleased with our experience with Time59 Review Source JS John S. Used the software for: ### "Great for solos and small firms" March 20, 2015 4.0 For years I used Timeslips, which is a very good, but extremely comprehensive time/invoice accounting and billing software. Timeslips is also very expensive. I am a solo practitioner, but I need to keep my time accurately and bill accordingly. Time59 is great. It's easy to use, and does everything I need. Even in MDL matters. I recommend it to solos and small firms. Review Source RA Russ A. Owner Used the software for: ### "High quality, low cost and very easy to use " March 19, 2015 5.0 Time59 is so easy to use and requires no understanding of accounting (which many software products like it require). I recommend it to all solo and small practitioners I know. I generate10-20 invoices a month and it takes me less than an hour to get my bills out. I can't say enough about how happy I am with the software. Review Source CA Candida A. Psychotherapist, life coach Used the software for: ### "Psychotherapist billing" March 23, 2015 5.0 Time59 has just what I need and nothing extra. That makes it much easier to master than complex accounting programs. My needs are simply to record the hours I spend with a client and the rate we've agreed upon. The owner/designser, Chris, was wonderful at helping me get started. The bills also look very nice. Review Source BG Boyd G. Founder Used the software for: ### "excellent and stable" March 18, 2015 4.0 I have used several different local and cloud based billing software solutions in my 15 years of practice. Time59 is very easy and VERY stable. No worries about crashes or corrupted data and no down time. Frequent updates from developer. Well worth the cost. Review Source PS Peter S. Attorney Used the software for: ### "Quick and Easy Billing" March 18, 2015 5.0 The program is easy to use and provides everything I need as a solo practitioner to invoice clients. So much better than TimeSlips. It's web based so access is easy and it's simply to create a backup of your billing on your computer. Review Source LS Lorie S. Office Manager Used the software for: ### "Time59 Billing Software Rocks" March 18, 2015 5.0 We have been using this billing software for a few years now. It is easy to use, customer service is amazing and the price is great too. Highly recommend Review Source WK Wendy K. Attorney Used the software for: ### "Great for Sole Practitioners" March 19, 2015 4.0 This product is a dream. Very compatible with Quickbooks, extremely user-friendly and cost efficient. I love the mobile app. Review Source JK Jeff K.

Mamaging Member Law Practice Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Time59 is a Hidden Gem - Outclasses the competition at a fraction fo the price, with no hidden costs" March 23, 2019 5.0 This product is a great solution that requres almost no training. I recommend it highly. Gives you a competitive edge and professional billing and collection from day one. It also shows you how out of touch much of the rest of the market is with its pricing structure, touting funcitonality that this product has at minimal cost, and that is much more user friendly than some of the much more expensive alternatives. You will be quite surpirsed at how robust and well organized this product is. Also, you get 30 days to check it out without payment. I have referred some others who now use this priduct with great results. Pros This is an invaluable cost effective tool for that should be considered by any small firm that is cost conscious but wants a high quality product. Time59 is VERY easy to use, can be learned literally in minutes and is functional as soon as you enter a single client. It focuses on "Clients" (matters) and "Projects" (multi-use but mostly for additoanl users). Time59 is highly intutitive in terms of use which I find lacking in many of the more expesive products. Set up a project for the client and a rate and you are ready to go. Set up additonal users as additional Projects by Client (one of the only things that is a little unusual). Set each client matter up as a new "client."The functionality of this project is terrific. It does everything that the big names do in terms of time management, billing and collecting. Syncs with LawPay. Direct Email Invoicing. Trust Account management. Free telephone support which is very helpful. With a few tweaks, this product does all that you need it to do. While it does not "sync" with Quickbooks. I view that as a blessing. Who needs the complexity? Export multiple reports to Excel, by your set categories, for accounting. I use this product to track firm expeses and reimbursements which are set up as additional accounts. Also, there is also a free App for users to input time should you not want them to have full access. Just make sure they are set up as Projects on the Clients in which they bill. For an inexpensive alternative, terrific! Cons Few "teaks" you need to get used to such as projects set up for each user. Also, you can't really have clients with mutiple matters as each matter must be set up as a client. HOWEVER, there is a function to categorizer all cleint matters together so that they can form a group. The Reports are excellent and quite comprehensive. It would be nice if there were links to them right from the main screen though or from the particular client matter. This is not a comrehensive case management solution. It is just for time management, billing, collections and trust account managment, and recieipts and receivables tracking. It does mostly everything on the acounting side except issue checks (those are on-line for the most part nowadays anyway). So if you need checks to be issued from the software, this product is probably not for you. If you need comrehensive case management, docuement mangament, calendaring, etc. in the same software package as your acounting and billing functions this product is not for you. Review Source DP Denise P. Attorney Law Practice Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best value for small and/or solo law firms. " September 15, 2023 5.0 Best product for solo and small firms. Customer service is quick to respond and easy to get a hold of for user questions and problem-solving. Pros Ease of use, dependable, customer service. Cons Of course, there are features that could make this product competitive with larger practice/billing management systems. However, this product is aimed for smaller practices and those attorneys just starting out. I am glad I began using this product as soon as I became a solo practitioner. I have used this product in tandem with other software platforms meant for legal services, and I always go back to Time59. Time59 satisfies the needs for capturing time and generating professional invoices. Reason for choosing Time59 Ease of use and ability to capture hours, accounting features are just what is needed, and generating invoices is easy to understand and professional looking. Review Source DW DOROTHYKAYE W. Paralegal Law Practice Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Heaven Sent!!!" January 18, 2020 5.0 Although my experience has been brief it has been an eye-opener to how much simpler my daily workload can be which will allow me to get more tasks completed in my day! Pros Since I literally have only used it for one day, I can only comment on the features I have used to date but that little time has only left me more excited about how Time59 is going to make my days smoother! Initially what I really loved and captured my attention is that fact I could sign up for a 30 day trial for no fee and without having to speak to a Time59 salesperson or agent. I get to do exactly what is advertised and that is to try it out. One feature I believe is heaven sent and in one day has made my case management duties a breeze is the fact I can add a Client and then add Projects under that client without creating a new case for each task we perform for the client. In MyCase I would have to create a case for each task. It would get very confusing and the billing would get all jacked up! I would literally have to delete everything and start anew. Cons I haven't found anything yet that I don't like about this software except that I am unable to create firm documents with it or at least I don't believe so. I have contacted support to find out and awaiting their response. Alternatives considered [Bill4Time](https://www.capterra.com/p/212371/Bill4Time/) Reason for choosing Time59 Because of the no-strings free 30 day trial, the simple way the software features were mapped out on the software information page and that there is not a charge per user per year.
