Juris 3.1—Revolutionizing Trust Accounting for the Modern Law Firm

Watch this webinar recording to learn how Juris 3.1 is reinventing the way you accept retainer and IOLTA payments through the enhanced payment integration with ClientPay®, an AffiniPay solution.

The enhanced version of the Juris and ClientPay® integration allows your firm to seamlessly process and post payments for both earned and unearned fees in a single payment environment and without leaving Juris. The following webinar topics covered were:

  • Faster payment and removed burden in manual A/R processes for retainer and IOLTA payments.
  • Compliance with ABA regulations and how to avoid commingling of funds while accepting credit card, debit card, and eCheck payments for your trust accounts.
  • Integration of payment acceptance processes with Juris 3.1 to seamlessly support integrated processing for earned and unearned fees in a single environment.

A trust account is necessary to protect both your clients’ funds and your bar card. Attorneys who receive retainers from their clients take on the role of a fiduciary, per their state bar’s rules. Up to and until the attorney has worked that case and billed the client for said work, the money in that IOLTA (also referred to as a trust account in many jurisdictions) is the property of the client. Misuse of those funds is, in essence, theft.

All state bars require you to do some sort of accounting and reporting regarding your trust account. To properly accomplish this, you must maintain a record of all receipts and payments of funds for each client. Read our latest blog post to find out how the partnership between Juris and ClientPay® helps attorneys to track and segregate client funds a lot easier with the use of our software program designed specifically for trust accounting.
