How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Our perpetual innovation and leadership position has earned us a reputation as experts in legal payments. Our VP of Enterprise Solutions, Melissa Chambers, serves on the Professional Development Advisory Committee (PDAC) for the Association of Legal Administrators (ALA). Additionally, LawPay’s Founder and Executive Chairman was invited by the Electronic Transaction Association (ETA), the payment industry’s governing body, to join its Presidential Advisory Council in 2018.

The ETA SRP provides ISOs, Payment Facilitators, and acquirers the ability to demonstrate a deep commitment to industry self-regulation. The ETA SRP seeks to improve security and reduce risk in the payments industry by acknowledging companies who have a critical understanding of the key components essential to mitigate instances of abuse to consumers in the payments system.

What do you like best about LawPay?

LawPay is packed with intuitive features that cater to a variety of business needs. The powerful reporting tools let us track all financial transactions, making it easy for our bookkeeper to balance our accounts. The real-time payment notifications on our dashboard and corresponding emails, keeps us informed of all payments coming in. The “Quick Bill” feature is one of our favorites, as it’s a simple way to send out requests for payment. The “Charge” feature is very convenient for our customers, because it gives them multiple payment options, ACH, credit card and the wonderful “Pay Later” feature, where they can apply to finance a line of credit. It is user-friendly and seamlessly integrates with other platforms we already use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LawPay?

We can't really name anything we dislike about LawPay. LawPay like every other vendor has fees, and nobody likes to pay those, but their fees are competative and I feel they are in line with other companies like them, so no real complaint there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LawPay solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are not experiencing any problems at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LawPay?

LawPay is an excellent system. It offers a simple, user-friendly interface with easy invoice uploading, transaction reminders, and other features. Additionally, it provides fast payouts with relatively low fees, and the integrations are easy to set up. The onboarding process is straightforward, and I have not encountered a single issue since I started using LawPay. Integration is also simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LawPay?

I would like to see more features for building invoices within the web platform instead of relying on an external system. Additionally, I want to access more information about the client's credit card details and location, similar to what other competitors provide. It would also be helpful to view the email and transaction process more easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LawPay solving and how is that benefiting you?

Accepting credit cards is not necessarily difficult for a business. However, as a lawyer, it's beneficial to have a service that understands the legal profession, including the ability to send funds to trust accounts and other features relevant to lawyers. The lower fees are also a significant advantage. This service has simplified the payment process for my clients and allows me to track when funds arrive and ensure they go to the correct place.

What do you like best about LawPay?

I get billing done and out sooner, and the majority of clients pay the day billing is received. My billing is so much more convenient and easy. In "tech" language, it is easy to implement, and once I started, I use it frequently--several times a day. I so love this program, and I have recommended it to many associates. I am one happy LawPay customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LawPay?

There are some minor wrinkles related to crediting payments. I am not entirely happy with the Trust Account credits, but that is quibbling. Overall, my experience is entirely satisfying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LawPay solving and how is that benefiting you?

Eases my billing, gets invoices out quickly, and it provides a very easy to access and employ payment interface for clients. I get paid faster and clients like it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LawPay?

Law Pay makes it easy for our Firm to process credit cards, schedule future charges, and track payments that have come through. Setting up the program was no problem at all, and any time we have questions our customer support team is very responsive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LawPay?

I can't say we have ever encountered issues with LawPay. Our account has a limited amount of dollars that we can take in within a 24 hour period, so we have to schedule multiple payments for those clients with larger bills. Still, this function has proved to be easy to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LawPay?

The interface of the dashboard is easy to understand. It offers great features, such as QR code generation for payment pages, easy links to copy, request card/billing information and quick bills. These features allow us to use the software to collect retainers and payments on accounts. Clients are able to submit payments where every they are or when in the office, we added the card reader which accepts tap to pay.

The customer support has been prompt and helpful whenever a question arises.

Also, join their Coffee with LawPay webinar for a fun and informative meeting on current features and upcoming features! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LawPay solving and how is that benefiting you?

Accepting payments with little barriers. The echeck and pay later option has expanded the options for our clients and we are getting more payments, faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LawPay?

LawPay is much more efficient than I previous payment service. The ability to provide a link for potential clients to pay rather than set up an invoice saves me so much time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LawPay?

We've stopped accepting checks but instead of requiring a different form of payment "account not found" is response clients receive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LawPay solving and how is that benefiting you?

We were taking payments by phone prior to LawPay. Now I don't have to stop what I am doing to enter a card number. It's such a time saver and the link to pay is very convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being in Puerto Rico we charged an extra fee and being treated as a foreign jurisdiction. Not fair. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Allowing the law firm to receive electronic payments directly rather than through our bank, with a lower fee, and to receive credit and debit card payments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LawPay?

LawPay is so easy to use. Because it is geared to lawyers, it understands trust accounting unlike regular merchants. You do not have to be tech savvy to use it, easy to get around and the support staff is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LawPay?

Nothing, I really like LawPay. The only thing I would suggest is a way to dispute chargebacks on the platform itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

LawPay offers a one stop merchant system for all of my accounts we deposit into. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LawPay?

We have multiple client databases connected, and payments can be taken through both but processed in one central application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LawPay?

There is no way to refund if a payment has been processed more than 6 months prior. We have clients on payment plans and if they choose to not follow through, we have to mail a check rather than have it directly refunded to the card used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Billing in one central location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that reports are hard to find, the rates are too high and it takes too long to recieve payments Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LawPay solving and how is that benefiting you?

Currently we are moving away from law pay. It was taking way too long for payments to come in and trying to figure out how to split lump deposits became too taxing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
