Linetime review
A broad legal operations suite for firms that need configurable workflows and accounting.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Linetime is legal case, matter, document and practice management software for regional, national, multi-site and enterprise law firms. Liberate brings together matter management, document version control and preview, automatic billable time recording, legal accounting, billing, credit control, CRM, reporting and client onboarding with anti-money-laundering checks. It is particularly suited to firms with in-house IT teams or requirements for configurable processes, permissions and data screens.
Pricing is handled through contact with the vendor rather than published self-service plans. That makes a demonstration and sales discussion central to evaluating fit, scope and total implementation requirements. The product's breadth is a key consideration: firms can configure workflows, matter types, permissions and data screens, while also covering lead tracking, campaign management and reporting dashboards. This makes Linetime a stronger match for firms standardising varied legal and business processes than for teams seeking a narrowly focused matter tracker.
Its ecosystem supports Microsoft 365, Outlook, iManage, InfoTrack, Perfect Portal, DocuSign, BigHand, Onpayo and Text Anywhere, alongside open APIs for legal and business applications. Automatic time capture includes Outlook activity, and mobile apps extend the product beyond the web and API platforms. Linetime also provides implementation, training, support and client-success services. Firms wanting configurable accounting, onboarding, document control and integrations should consider Linetime; smaller practices seeking simple, transparent pricing and a lighter setup may prefer a more focused alternative.
