What you can do with this MCP connector
The LEAP Legal MCP Server gives your agent direct access to the whole LEAP Legal database. You don't have to switch tabs or export CSVs; you can run specific operations right from your chat window. Here’s what it does.
Client and Contact Management
- You use
create_leap_contactto drop a brand-new record into the system, specifying if the person is a client, an opposing party, or just a witness. - If you need info on one specific individual or organization, call
get_leap_contact; it pulls all their contact details for you. - You can pull up your entire roster of contacts using
list_leap_contacts, which shows every entry in the client database.
Case and Matter Tracking
- When a case starts, you use
create_leap_matterto set up a new legal matter; that requires giving it a name and letting your agent optionally link it straight to an existing client ID. - If you need details on a specific file or case ID, run
get_leap_matterfor the full record. - You can find cases using natural language keywords across names and descriptions with
search_leap_matters. - To see everything active in the firm, use
list_leap_matters, letting you filter by status or practice area. You'll also runget_client_leap_mattersto grab a complete list of every matter tied to one specific client ID. - If data changes—like updating a case status or adding internal notes—you use
update_leap_matterto modify the existing record.
Time Tracking and Billing
- To log work, you call
create_leap_time_entry, specifying the matter ID, a description of the work done, and the total duration in minutes for billing purposes. - You can see every logged minute using
list_leap_time_entries; this list lets you filter by date range or specific matter IDs. - For financial oversight, use
list_leap_billsto get a rundown of all existing invoices and bills. If you need the full breakdown of just one bill, runget_leap_billwith the invoice ID. - To check cash flow, call
list_leap_payments, which provides a record of every payment received from clients.
Documentation and Utility Tools
- You can get all filings, correspondence, or evidence attached to one specific case using
list_leap_documentswith the matter ID. - To keep track of what's coming up, run
list_leap_calendar_events; this pulls a summary of court dates, deadlines, and scheduled meetings. - You can manage outstanding action items by running
list_leap_tasks, which shows tasks linked to specific matters or contacts. - If you need to see what custom data fields are available for your practice area, check with
list_leap_custom_fields. - Lastly, if you just want a comprehensive list of every contact in the system without filtering, use
list_leap_contacts.
How LEAP Legal MCP Works
- 1 1. Subscribe to the server on Vinkius and provide your LEAP Legal OAuth 2 access token.
- 2 2. Your AI client recognizes the available tools (e.g.,
list_leap_contacts,get_leap_matter). - 3 3. When you ask a question—like 'Show me all open cases for John Smith'—the agent selects and executes the correct tool calls, then reads the data back to you.
The bottom line is: your AI client becomes an extension of LEAP Legal, giving it structured access to data that used to require manual clicks.
Who Is LEAP Legal MCP For?
Solo practitioners and small law firms who are tired of juggling spreadsheets for billable hours and jumping between client portals. This is for the paralegal or legal assistant who spends half their day compiling status reports, manually tracking deadlines, and ensuring every time entry gets logged against the right case.
Quickly finds matter details, searches documents for specific filings, or lists all contacts belonging to a single client.
Runs list_leap_bills and reviews payments using list_leap_payments to reconcile accounts receivable without logging into the billing module directly.
Manages their entire caseload—from opening a new matter (create_leap_matter) to logging time entries against it—all through simple chat prompts.
What Changes When You Connect
- Stop jumping between LEAP UI screens. You can run
list_leap_mattersorsearch_leap_mattersto instantly pull up every case and status update without clicking through filters. - Streamline billing prep by running
list_leap_time_entriesacross a date range. This gathers all billable hours needed for an invoice, letting you focus only on the final report. - Build client profiles completely via chat. Instead of manually creating records, just ask the agent to 'Add John Smith as a contact' using
create_leap_contact, and it gets logged correctly. - Never miss a deadline again. The agent can use
list_leap_calendar_eventsto pull all upcoming hearings or deadlines for your whole firm in one go. - Accelerate billing cycles by calling
create_leap_time_entry. Just tell the agent how long you worked and what it was, and it logs the time against the correct matter ID.
Real-World Use Cases
Client onboarding and initial setup
You just met a new client. Instead of opening LEAP Legal, creating the contact, then creating the matter, you simply ask your agent: 'Add Jane Doe as a client, and open a Family Law matter for her called 'Smith Divorce'.' The agent runs create_leap_contact followed immediately by create_leap_matter, setting up the entire portfolio in two steps.
Preparing monthly invoices
It's billing time. You need to total hours for Q2. Ask your agent: 'List all billable time entries between April 1 and June 30.' The agent uses list_leap_time_entries with the date filters, giving you a clean data set ready for invoice creation.
Status check on complex cases
You're prepping for a partner meeting. You need to know all open matters and their status. Prompt: 'What are all my open matters?' The agent runs list_leap_matters (filtered by Open) and provides the full list, saving you from running multiple searches.
Document retrieval for court filing
A paralegal needs evidence for a hearing. They ask: 'Get all correspondence documents for matter 123.' The agent executes list_leap_documents using the matter ID, instantly retrieving all necessary filings.
The Tradeoffs
Listing contacts by searching
Manually clicking 'Search' on a contact screen and typing in names one by one to check if they exist. This takes minutes, especially for large firms.
→
Use list_leap_contacts directly. If you need specific data, run get_leap_contact with the ID or email address instead of relying on search filters.
Guessing matter details
Calling get_leap_matter without knowing if the case is active or closed. You might pull up outdated information.
→
First, run list_leap_matters and filter by status (e.g., 'Open') to confirm the matter's current state before calling get_leap_matter.
Mixing billing data sources
Trying to track time in one place (LEAP) but payments received in a separate spreadsheet. This creates reconciliation errors.
→
Use list_leap_payments and list_leap_time_entries. These tools keep both financial records and logged work together within the LEAP system's data structure.
When It Fits, When It Doesn't
Use this server if your legal workflow requires calling specific, discrete actions against a single source of truth: LEAP Legal. You need to change something (like create_leap_contact) or read structured reports (like running list_leap_time_entries over a date range). Don't use it if your task is simple data viewing—for example, if you just want to view an exported CSV of contacts. In that case, exporting the data directly from LEAP Legal is simpler. Use this server when you need your AI agent to act as an executor, completing multi-step processes like 'Find all open matters' (using list_leap_matters) and then 'Get the documents for matter 123' (using list_leap_documents).

Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more
The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.
This server provides 18 capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client. No middleware. No custom integration required.
Available Capabilities
Finding a client's full case history shouldn't take five clicks.
Today, checking one client’s file means navigating to the contact record, opening the 'Matters' tab, filtering by status, and then clicking into each individual matter to see its documents. If you have three different cases, that’s at least 10 clicks and a lot of copy-pasting just to gather the data.
With this MCP server, your AI agent handles it all in one prompt. You ask for 'all matters for Acme Corp.' The agent runs `get_client_leap_matters`, pulls the list, and immediately gives you the status and names of every case without you having to open a single tab.
Using `create_leap_time_entry` makes billing instantaneous.
The old way was: finish work, open the time sheet module, find the correct client and matter ID (which you might have to copy/paste), select the duration from a drop-down, enter the description, and finally, hit save. It’s slow and prone to human error.
Now, your agent handles it. You just tell your assistant: 'Log 90 minutes of legal research for matter 123.' The server runs `create_leap_time_entry`, validates the ID, logs the time, and marks it billable—all in a single conversational step.

Can I create new matters and contacts through the API? +
Yes! You can create new matters with name, client assignment, status, and practice area. You can also create new contacts with first name, last name, email, phone, and contact type (Client, Opposing Party, Witness, etc.). Use create_leap_matter and create_leap_contact tools for these operations.
How do I track billable time with LEAP Legal API? +
Use create_leap_time_entry to log time against any matter. Provide the matter ID, description of work, and duration in minutes. You can specify whether the entry is billable and set a custom hourly rate. Use list_leap_time_entries to view all time logged against a specific matter or across all matters.
How do I use `list_leap_documents` to retrieve case evidence? +

What parameters can I pass to `list_leap_matters` for filtering? +
You can filter results by status, practice area, or client ID. By passing these filters—for example, setting the status to 'Open' and practice_area to 'Family Law'—you narrow down the firm’s caseload instantly.
