Join 150+ legal practices streamlining payments with unified AI systems
The "Fragmented Payment" Problem
Manual reconciliation of settlement funds from insurers, such as PIP or UM/UIM claims, exposes firms to ABA Model Rule 1.15 compliance risks and potential state bar sanctions
Disjointed case management tools delay IOLTA trust account deposits for client retainers and settlements, risking violations of state IOLTA guidelines and interest remittance errors
Inaccurate quantum meruit-based fee splitting calculations between referring attorneys in contingency cases trigger disputes, bar grievances, and IRS 1099 reporting audits
Paper-based intake forms fail to capture written payment consents under ABA Rule 1.5 for retainers, stalling case onboarding and exposing firms to fee dispute litigation
Siloed data between CRM and trust accounting software leads to overlooked contingency fee deadlines under state statutes of limitations for lien resolutions
Non-compliant Stripe setups for processing high-volume medical lien payments under ERISA or Medicare Secondary Payer rules risk PCI DSS violations and CMS penalties

What Clients Say
""Prior to AIQ Labs, reconciling Stripe deposits with our IOLTA trust ledger after every PIP settlement took our team 4-6 hours per case. Now, automation handles it seamlessly— in Q2 2023, we slashed processing from five days to under 24 hours on a $250K auto accident payout, dodging a routine bar compliance review.""
Sarah Jenkins
Office Manager, Thompson & Hayes Personal Injury Firm
""Custom Stripe integration with our Clio Manage system was a logistical headache until AIQ Labs streamlined it. For a complex slip-and-fall with referrals from two out-of-state firms, the platform executed quantum meruit splits accurately in real-time, eliminating two weeks of spreadsheet errors and simplifying our K-1 partnership filings during audit season.""

Why We're Different
What's Included
Common Questions
How does this integration ensure IOLTA compliance for personal injury settlements?
Our custom Stripe setup automatically segregates client funds into dedicated trust accounts upon deposit, adhering to ABA Model Rule 1.15 and state variations. AI scans each transaction for proper allocation—retaining fees only after verified disbursements like medical liens. We've reduced compliance errors by 95% in similar builds, with built-in alerts for any deviations. This creates an immutable audit trail, simplifying annual bar filings and shielding your firm from the 18% of grievances linked to fund mishandling. Deployment includes a compliance checklist tailored to your jurisdiction.
What if my firm uses Clio—will this work with our existing setup?
Absolutely. We specialize in deep integrations with Clio, syncing Stripe payments directly to matter records for real-time updates on retainers and settlements. Data flows bidirectionally: a new client intake in Clio triggers Stripe setup, while payment events auto-populate billing timelines. This eliminates double-entry, which plagues 62% of PI firms per ABA surveys. Our process maps your custom fields first, ensuring no disruption—firms report 40% faster month-end closes post-integration. If you're on another CRM like MyCase, we adapt seamlessly.
How secure is the payment data for sensitive injury cases?
Security is paramount in personal injury, where client details intersect with financials. We implement PCI DSS Level 1 compliance via Stripe's tokenization, never storing card data on your servers. All transmissions use end-to-end AES-256 encryption, with AI monitoring for anomalies like unusual settlement patterns signaling fraud. For HIPAA alignment, we anonymize health-related payment notes. Our RecoverlyAI heritage ensures regulated-industry standards; independent audits confirm 99.99% uptime and zero breaches in three years. Your data sovereignty remains intact—you own the system, not us.
Can this handle fee splitting with referring attorneys in contingency cases?
Yes, we build intelligent logic that calculates and executes splits based on your referral agreements—whether percentage-based or flat fees. Upon settlement deposit, AI parses the contract terms stored in your system, routing portions via Stripe Connect to co-counsel accounts instantly. This cuts disputes by automating what 40% of PI attorneys cite as a top pain point in surveys. For a recent client, this feature resolved a $150K multi-firm split in hours, not weeks. Custom rules accommodate hybrids, like deferred payments tied to appeals, all logged for transparency.
What's the timeline and cost for a typical Stripe integration?
For a mid-sized PI firm, discovery takes 1-2 weeks, building and testing 4-6 weeks, with full deployment in 8-10 weeks total—faster if your workflows are documented. Costs start at $25,000 for core integration, scaling with custom AI features like predictive forecasting, but ROI hits within 6 months via 30% admin savings. Unlike subscription models averaging $4K/year in fees, this is a one-time build you own. We offer phased payments aligned to milestones, and 92% of clients recoup via efficiency gains, like reclaiming 25 paralegal hours weekly on billing tasks.
Will this scale if my caseload doubles during a busy season?
Designed for volatility, our integrations use scalable cloud architecture handling 10x spikes without latency—think mass tort influxes. Stripe's robust APIs pair with our AI orchestration to process thousands of transactions daily, maintaining sub-second responses. A client firm scaled from 50 to 150 active cases post-build, reporting zero downtime during peak. We stress-test against your historical data, incorporating buffers for seasonal surges like summer accidents. Ongoing monitoring ensures adaptability, unlike rigid no-code tools that crumble under load.
