Business Description
Have you ever wanted to learn about the start of Rocket Matter, the first online legal practice management software? The idea for an online legal billing and law practice management software came to us in 2006, when a few attorney friends complained to us about the lack of decent law office technology options. We were in for a shock: back then, there simply wasn’t any online legal practice management software. Sure, legal billing software existed, but it was cumbersome, frequently expensive, required continuous upgrades, and didn’t provide for all the other things a lawyer needs (e.g. calendar, task management, document assembly). While the entire business world was moving into the cloud, lawyers were being left behind. In particular, the legal software needs of solo practitioners and small law firms just didn’t appear to be on anyone’s radar. We observed our attorney friends in their day-to-day routines to understand their daily challenges. We wrote the first lines of code for our legal software application in January 2007. Then we coded around the clock for a while. By August, we demonstrated our nascent product to a local law firm, Shiner and Sosin P.A., who decided to give us a try. We delivered “the product” to their office in November 2007, and gained our second and third beta customers over the ensuing months. We went from literally nothing – just an idea – to a working product installed in a law firm in ten months. We settled on the name “Rocket Matter” (after more perspiration than inspiration), because we wanted to communicate two things with our brand. First, we wanted to convey that our law office software was blazingly fast, hence we chose “Rocket”. Second, we wanted to speak to the legal vertical, so we chose the word “matter”, which is how attorneys refer to their cases. We announced Rocket Matter, which at the time was the first online legal billing and law practice management software, in February of 2008. Immediately, the intuitive elegance of the software and the fast performance attracted Mac-using attorneys, and the number of lawyers using our law practice management software on Macs, iPhones® and iPads® grows daily. PC users quickly joined Rocket Matter as well, and now we have a happy community of both Mac and PC-using attorneys.
