Visit this page to see the highlights.

Contract Owner now displayed in the header

Contract Owner details have been relocated to the header of your contract record, increasing visibility.

Add user as a contract approver and member in one click

Previously, users had to navigate away to add members before they could be selected as contract approvers, which can be quite disruptive to your workflow. Now, you can add users as both approvers and contract members in one click from the Approvers tab, significantly streamlining your workflow.

Updates to spend management: invoice grid enhancements

We've made updates to the invoice grids to improve consistency and visibility of important fields.

  • The Approved Payment column has been changed to Total for Payment and now includes the total fees, disbursements and tax on the invoice.

  • The Billed Difference column has been changed to Adjustments, which will highlight any changes made to LEDES line items in the invoice review process.

Legal Notes: Deeper context, sharper detail, and smarter decisions

In the coming weeks, we’re releasing Legal Notes—a brand new, in-matter note-taking feature that allows your team to easily capture case notes, legal decisions, and internal reasoning directly within the matter itself. When legal notes launches, we'll also be rolling out a new matter record layout, with notes and a streamlined layout to help you access information faster and work more efficiently.

And if you have access to Workspace Intelligence™ Standard, you’ll also be able to leverage AI note summaries to distill your notes into concise overviews and key takeaways to support faster handovers and decision making.

Find exactly what you need faster with search enhancements

Get time back for more important things. Keep your eyes peeled, it’ll soon be easier than ever to search and find exactly what you need from anywhere in your LawVu workspace.

Here’s what’s coming:

  • Quick search: You’ll be able to view up to 20 search results, toggle between Matters, Contracts or All for more focused results, and use additional filters to narrow your search results.

  • Global search: We're improving the results page layout to make it easier to scan and navigate large results sets. You'll also be able to use more filters and multi-select options to refine results and get exactly what you need faster.

If you have any questions or would like to see a demo of upcoming features, feel free to contact your Customer Success Manager.
