What Makes Us Different:
Quantifiable Gains for Your Firm
Reclaim 15-20 Hours Weekly on Billable Work
Reclaim 15-20 Hours Weekly on Billable Work: Manual invoicing for estate plans often consumes hours sifting through wills, codicils, and asset inventories. Our AI extracts data from scanned PDFs of probate documents, calculates fees per ABA Model Rule 1.5 guidelines, and routes for senior partner approval—freeing your team for high-value client consultations on legacy planning. Firms report a 35% productivity boost, translating to $50K+ in additional annual revenue per attorney through faster case throughput.
Achieve 4x Faster ROI Through Cost Reductions
Achieve 4x Faster ROI Through Cost Reductions: Compliance errors in trust billing, such as misallocations under the Uniform Prudent Investor Act, can cost thousands in audits and sanctions. Our system automates reconciliations with 99.9% accuracy using blockchain-secured ledgers, reducing overhead by 40%. For a mid-sized estate practice handling 200+ trusts annually, this means slashing administrative costs from $120K to $72K yearly, with payback in under three months via streamlined fiduciary reporting.
Ironclad Compliance for Fiduciary Duties
Ironclad Compliance for Fiduciary Duties: Navigating probate invoicing demands precision to avoid bar complaints or ERISA violations in benefit distributions. We embed AI checks for IOLTA compliance, fee reasonableness under state ethics opinions, and generate audit-ready trails with timestamped e-signatures. This not only mitigates risks but enhances client trust, with 92% of users noting improved satisfaction scores and a 25% reduction in dispute filings.
What Clients Say
"Before AIQ Labs, our firm spent Fridays reconciling estate invoices manually—it was a nightmare during peak probate season with backlogs from contested wills. Now, the system handles everything from beneficiary splits per Uniform Probate Code to automatic tax deductions for estate taxes. We've saved about 12 hours a week, and our error rate dropped to zero last quarter, allowing us to close 15% more cases on time."
Sarah Jenkins
Senior Partner, Jenkins & Hargrove Estate Law Firm, Chicago
"As a solo estate planner, tracking retainers across multiple irrevocable trusts was overwhelming amid varying state fiduciary standards. Their custom automation integrated with my QuickBooks and flagged a compliance issue on a $200K revocable living trust that I would've missed, preventing a potential bar inquiry. Implementation took just two weeks, and billing speed doubled without hiring extra staff, boosting my annual revenue by 28%."
Michael Torres
Principal Attorney, Torres Legacy Planning Group, Miami
"We deal with complex multi-state estates involving cross-border assets, and generic software couldn't keep up with varying fee rules under state bar guidelines. AIQ's solution is built around our workflow—now approvals flow through encrypted channels compliant with HIPAA for sensitive beneficiary data, and we've cut payment delays from 45 to 10 days. It's like having an extra paralegal who never sleeps, saving us $30K in delayed fee collections last year."

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does your invoice automation ensure compliance with estate planning regulations?
We embed AI logic trained on ABA Model Rules and state-specific fiduciary standards, automating checks for fee caps, IOLTA deposits, and ethical disclosures. For instance, the system flags disproportionate fees in low-asset estates before invoicing. Unlike generic tools, our custom builds include tamper-proof audit logs that withstand bar audits, reducing compliance risks by 75% based on our deployments. Implementation involves mapping your jurisdiction's rules during discovery, ensuring 100% adherence without manual overrides.
What kind of time savings can estate planning attorneys expect?
Typically, attorneys recover 15-20 hours weekly from manual tasks like reconciling trust ledgers or formatting probate bills. In one case, a firm handling 50 estates annually cut month-end closes from 8 hours to 45 minutes. Our AI processes documents at 10x human speed, focusing your time on strategy. ROI materializes quickly: with average billable rates at $400/hour, that's $300K+ in recaptured value yearly. We provide pre-launch simulations to forecast your exact gains.
Is the system secure for handling sensitive client data in estates?
Absolutely—security is paramount in estate planning, where data includes personal financials and beneficiary details. We use enterprise-grade encryption (AES-256) and HIPAA-compliant protocols, with role-based access ensuring only authorized staff view invoices. Features like anonymized processing for contested estates prevent breaches. Our solutions undergo third-party penetration testing, and we've never had a data incident in 500+ legal deployments. Plus, you own the system, hosted on your secure cloud, not ours.
How do you customize the automation for my firm's unique workflows?
No templates here—we start with a deep-dive audit of your processes, like how you bill for will revisions versus full probate administration. Our engineers then code bespoke AI models, integrating with your tools for seamless data pulls (e.g., from estate valuation software). For a recent client, we tailored logic for tiered fees based on asset size. The result is a system that mirrors your operations, deployable in 4-6 weeks, with 95% automation coverage out of the gate.
What happens if our practice grows or regulations change?
Scalability is built-in; our architecture handles volume spikes, like during tax season, without performance dips. For regulatory shifts, such as new uniform probate codes, we provide updates via modular code—often at no extra cost in the first year. Clients in dynamic areas like California estates have seen seamless adaptations. We include quarterly reviews to optimize, ensuring your system evolves, maintaining that 300% ROI as your firm expands from 10 to 50 cases monthly.
Can this integrate with my existing accounting and case management software?
Yes, we specialize in deep, two-way API integrations with platforms like QuickBooks, Xero, Clio, and PracticePanther. For estate firms, this means automatic syncing of retainer draws to trust accounts, eliminating double-entry errors that plague 60% of practices per industry surveys. Setup involves secure API keys and testing for data integrity. Post-integration, you'll have a unified view: one dashboard tracks invoice status alongside case timelines, cutting reconciliation time by 50%.
