24/7 intake workflows with jail call handling, bail calculation tools, arraignment scheduling, and emergency retainer agreement delivery for time-critical intake.. Professional invoicing software for creating, sending, and tracking invoices.
If any of these sound familiar, you are not alone. Most criminal defense businesses deal with these every day.
Rapid-response intake where defendants call from jail after arrest, and the first 24-48 hours (bail, arraignment, initial interviews) often determine case trajectory.
Discovery package management where prosecutors deliver hundreds or thousands of pages of police reports, body cam footage, witness statements, and forensic evidence that must be organized for defense review.
Court calendar juggling where attorneys handle 10-50 open cases at various courts, and conflicting hearing dates, continuances, and emergency motions require constant schedule triage.
Plea vs. trial decision points where strategic decisions about negotiating pleas vs. taking cases to trial depend on evidence strength, client circumstances, and prosecutorial discretion.
Expungement and post-conviction relief where clients return years after conviction seeking record clearing, sentence modifications, and immigration-related relief work.
Every pain point above has a matching solution built into Deelo — no extra plugins, no extra cost.
