Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

For UK law firms looking to manage matters and finances in one place, fastMatter brings case management together with legal accounting, trust accounts, billing, document automation, file management, tasks, time recording, CRM and online payments. Its scope suits small and medium-sized firms that want a broad practice-management system rather than separate tools for each function. The web-based service is cloud deployed, and the product description says it supports SRA Accounts Rules and Making Tax Digital workflows.

The accounting and matter features are closely connected in the offering: firms can manage client and matter files, record time, invoice and take online payments, and use separate trust accounts with bank reconciliation and accounting reports. Document automation uses templates and tokens, while task workflows help organize deadlines and team collaboration. Intake CRM includes sales pipelines, campaigns and ROI reports, and conflict-of-interest checking is also included. This breadth is the central reason to consider fastMatter; firms seeking only a focused matter tracker may find its combined accounting and client-management scope unnecessary.

The published plans show all features in both billing options, with the first 5 GB of storage free. Annual billing costs £39.99 per user per month, and signup includes a 30-day free trial; the product has no free plan. The listed platform is web, and phone support is available. Compliance listings include GDPR and ISO 27001. fastMatter is a stronger fit for small firms that value combined legal accounting and matter workflows than for buyers prioritizing integrations or mobile apps, which are not part of the listed offering.
