contents Legal technology has changed the way law firms are managed worldwide. Substantial research has been undertaken on the role of legal technology in law firm management especially in developed countries. Though, most studies have only focused on the benefits and challenges, and have failed to analyse law firm management areas requiring software solutions. The principal objective of this paper was to investigate the level of technology adoption among Nigerian law firms, as well as to develop a software solution to automate work processes in identified areas. This investigation was done using systematic literature review to gather relevant data on the subject area and identify knowledge gaps. Findings from the research indicated a need for further analysis of the various areas in law practice that could require software solutions. The findings also discussed the implementation of a property management module which is an important contribution to the management of law firms in Nigeria. A speech-to-text transcription feature was also implemented to eliminate the need for lengthy typing.
