Manage legal matters in Claude Desktop

Open new cases or review existing files by calling `create_leap_matter` and `list_leap_matters` directly from your workspace. You get the current status and practice area of any case without switching tabs. Keep your firm organized by using `search_leap_matters` to find specific files. It pulls the exact data you need so you can focus on the legal work instead of digging through records.

Automate contact and client intake

Add new clients to your database using `create_leap_contact`. This MCP Server handles the data entry so you don't have to manually type names, emails, or phone numbers into your firm's system. Verify your current client list with `list_leap_contacts` to ensure your data stays accurate. It provides a quick way to check who is in your system and what their current role is for active files.

Track billable time and billing logs

Record your work hours immediately using `create_leap_time_entry`. You define the matter, the description, and the duration, and the server pushes it straight into your billing records. Review past activity using `list_leap_time_entries` or pull specific invoice details with `get_leap_bill`. It gives you a clear view of your firm's revenue and helps you prepare for client discussions with actual numbers.
