The operating system for legal work.
A single controlled workflow from intake to submission. One matter model. One set of files. One system for the whole file, not a stack of disconnected tools bolted together.
One system. Six operational layers.
Every layer references the same matter model. That is what makes Dovelta feel like infrastructure for legal work rather than a toolchain.
Intake layer
Structured client intake per matter type. Data captured once and carried into every downstream step. Questionnaires are part of the file, not a separate product.
Matter layer
The matter is the unit of work. Blueprints per immigration matter type define the state model, status, parties, roles, deadlines, and required IRCC documents are all matter-linked.
Document layer
Legal document management, evidence libraries, and template building live with the matter. No shared drive sprawl. Access follows the matter, not the user.
Workflow & forms layer
Forms and questionnaires are tied to matter state. Workflow gates move the file forward only when the underlying data is actually ready.
Collaboration layer
Team assignments, comments, and shared views all reference the matter. Context stays with the file, not in a chat thread or a separate project tool.
Submission layer
Package assembly and review gates so a filed matter is demonstrably complete. An audit trail records what went out, when, and by whom.
Legal case management, document management, billing, and trust, all inside one system.
Dovelta brings the operational surface of a full legal practice management system into one controlled workflow. Case management, calendaring, task management, contact management, and team collaboration sit alongside document management, legal billing, trust account management, online payments, time and expense tracking, accounting, and financial reporting, all connected to the matter.
Case management
Legal case management that treats the matter as the unit of work. Status, state, parties, and timeline in one controlled view.
Matter management
Blueprints per immigration matter type drive the state model, roles, deadlines, and required IRCC documents.
Calendaring
Matter-linked calendaring with deadline discipline. Court dates, IRCC submission windows, and internal review gates all reference the file.
Task management
Tasks attached to the matter and the person responsible. Follow-up happens from the file, not a separate checklist tool.
Contact management
Clients, sponsors, employers, translators, and representatives carried once, reused across related matters in a family or sponsorship.
Team collaboration
Internal comments, assignments, and shared matter views. Context stays with the file, not in a chat thread.
Document management
Legal document management and evidence libraries live with the matter. Access follows the matter, not the user.
Legal billing
Matter-level legal billing tied to work actually done on the file. Invoices reconcile against recorded time and expenses.
Time and expense tracking
Time and expense tracking recorded against the matter. No separate spreadsheet, no end-of-month reconciliation drift.
Trust account management
Trust account management aligned to professional obligations. Trust ledgers, retainer application, and reconciliation inside the system.
Online payments
Online payments processed against the matter, applied to the invoice, and reconciled to the trust or operating ledger automatically.
Accounting & financial reporting
Accounting and financial reporting derived from real file activity. Revenue, WIP, and trust balances are outputs of the file, not a second data entry pass.
From first contact to filed package.
Dovelta runs the file from intake to submission in one place. Every step is a state of the matter, not a separate tool.
