Run your solo practice like a full-service firm. Alfred handles intake, research, deadlines, drafting, billing, and client updates so you can focus on advocacy.
Running a solo practice means wearing every hat. Alfred takes the administrative burden off your shoulders.
A full-time paralegal costs $45,000–$65,000/year. Most sole practitioners can't justify the expense, so they do everything themselves.
Solo barristers spend 10+ hours per week on legal research alone — time that could be billed to clients or spent on strategy.
Without a dedicated clerk, limitation periods and filing deadlines slip through the cracks — the leading cause of LSO complaints.
Clients call for updates constantly. Without a receptionist, returning calls eats into billable hours and court prep time.
Everything a sole practitioner needs to compete with larger firms — without the overhead.
Automate new client onboarding with AI-powered intake forms, conflict checks, retainer generation, and file opening — all before the first meeting.
Search CanLII, provincial statutes, and federal legislation. AI-summarized results with citation-ready references in seconds, not hours.
Never miss a limitation period or filing deadline. Auto-calculates dates per provincial Rules of Civil Procedure and court calendars.
Generate affidavits, facta, motions, demand letters, and contracts from intelligent templates customized to your jurisdiction.
Track billable hours by client and matter in real time. Generate detailed dockets, trust account reconciliations, and LSO-compliant invoices.
Give clients 24/7 case status updates via AI chatbot. Reduces "Where is my file?" calls by 80% while maintaining solicitor-client privilege.

"I was drowning in admin work — 12-hour days just to keep up with a 30-file caseload. Alfred cut my research time in half, eliminated missed deadlines entirely, and my clients love the 24/7 status updates. It's like hiring a paralegal and a clerk for less than the cost of lunch."David Chen, Barrister & SolicitorToronto, ON — Solo General Practice
