About

Australian practice management built by people who listened to local firms.

CounselOS helps Australian law firms manage matters, clients, documents, billing, workflows, and team collaboration from one connected platform — with governed AI, per-firm pricing, and migration tooling for firms leaving FilePro and LawMaster.

We started after a year of conversations with sole practitioners, family lawyers, conveyancers, and commercial partners. The recurring theme: software built for overseas markets does not handle Australian trust rules, costs disclosure, or migration risk well enough.

What we believe.

Australian firms deserve Australian software

Trust accounting rules differ by state. Costs disclosure differs by jurisdiction. Limitation periods are written into our legislation, not someone else's. Software built for the US legal market does not handle this. Software built for the UK legal market does not handle this. We built ours for here.

AI without governance is a liability, not an asset

A lawyer using unapproved AI in a browser tab is a complaint waiting to happen. AI inside your practice system — protected client details, full audit trail, human review — is designed to assist productivity. The difference is the discipline of the platform, not the intelligence of the model.

Software should be on month-to-month terms

Many firms told us about multi-year contracts and exit fees on incumbent platforms. We offer month-to-month on self-serve tiers. If we are not earning your business every month, we should not have it next month.

Migration has to be painless

Thousands of Australian firms must move before December 2026. They will choose the platform that makes the switch straightforward. Much of our effort has gone into an assisted five-business-day migration path — because that is what principals ask about first.
