Managing time is one of the biggest daily challenges for legal professionals. Between client calls, case prep, billing, and admin tasks, lawyers often find themselves overwhelmed and underproductive. That’s why we decided to develop a lawyer time management software that makes all the difference.

Apart from solving the five issues from above, there are some special features we would like you to consider about Adeu:
Let’s be honest: many legal tech tools fail because they require firm-wide adoption and complex implementation. That usually means a large IT project, months of setup, countless internal meetings, and the challenge of getting everyone to use the system in the same way. It’s time-consuming, costly, and often frustrating.
Adeu takes a different path.
It’s designed to be installed locally on each lawyer’s laptop, with no need for IT department involvement or long rollout schedules. There are no GDPR concerns, as all tracking runs on the lawyer’s own device, and no data is sent to the cloud.
That means a lawyer can decide to start using ADEU independently—with no disruption to the rest of the team. And if even one extra billable hour is captured each month, the software pays for itself.
