GREYBOXSYSTEMS
For Solo Attorneys

Your practice management stack has gaps. We close them.

Solo attorneys lose 15+ hours a week to admin, intake, and tool-switching. We connect your existing tools, automate the repetitive work, and build systems tuned to your practice area and voice.

The Problem

Three engines. All running on manual.

Every practice runs on three systems. When they're disconnected, you spend more time managing work than doing it.

Growth Engine

Getting new clients

  • Leads slip through because follow-up is manual
  • No visibility into which referral sources actually convert
  • Intake-to-engagement takes days instead of hours
42%of solo attorneys say getting clients is their top challenge

Operations Engine

Running the back office

  • Time entries that never get logged because you switched contexts
  • Conflict checks done manually across disconnected systems
  • Documents drafted from scratch when 80% is templated
15 hrsper week spent on non-billable admin work

Client Intelligence

Serving current clients

  • Estate plan reviews that should happen annually but don't
  • Client status updates sent reactively instead of proactively
  • No system to flag at-risk clients before they leave
68%of clients leave due to perceived indifference
The Cost

$78K–$130K per attorney, per year.

That's what admin overhead costs a solo practice in lost billing capacity.

If you bill at $300-$500/hr and spend 15 hours/week on admin, that's 780 hours/year of non-billable time.

Multiply by your rate: $234K–$390K in total capacity lost.

Even recovering a third of that means $78K–$130K back in your practice every year.

Annual Recovered Value

Based on 15 hours/week reclaimed

And that's just the efficiency math. Factor in the clients you keep because nothing slips, the reviews that happen on time, the billable hours that actually get logged. The real number is higher.

Methodology: Based on ABA and Clio Legal Trends Report data showing solo attorneys spend 45-60% of their day on non-billable tasks. Conservative estimate uses 15 hrs/week (bottom of range) and recoverable fraction of 33-50%.

How It Works

Build. Operate. Expand.

A three-phase model designed so you never manage technology again.

01

Build

$2K-$8K4-6 weeks

We diagnose your highest-friction workflows in a discovery call, then build a scoped system targeting your biggest pain point. Intake automation, document assembly, billing integration — whatever moves the needle most.

  • Deep dive into your tools, workflows, and pain
  • Weekly visible progress — no black-box development
  • Go-live with hands-on training
02

Operate

$500-$1K/moOngoing

Your system runs on the Greybox Platform. We handle infrastructure, monitoring, and 24/7 support. You get a monthly operations report showing time saved and system health.

  • Infrastructure, backups, uptime monitoring
  • 24/7 support — response within 24 hours
  • Monthly operations and ROI report
03

Expand

30-50% lessAs needed

When you're ready for more, add-on projects cost significantly less than the initial build. The foundation is already in place — we know your stack, your data, your workflows.

  • Built on existing platform — faster, cheaper
  • No re-discovery overhead
  • Expand across all three practice domains
