Terms of service

Last updated 1 September 2026

Legalease is internal software operated by a law firm for its own staff. It is not offered to the public and there is no public sign-up. These terms apply to anyone the firm gives an account.

Accounts

Accounts are created and removed by the firm. Sharing an account, or signing in as another person, is not permitted.
Access is limited by role. Attempting to reach matters or correspondence outside your role is a breach of these terms.
You are responsible for keeping your password and any registered passkey secure, and for telling the firm promptly if either may have been compromised.

Acceptable use

Use Legalease for the firm’s work only. Client information held in it is confidential and, in many cases, privileged.
Do not extract, copy or transmit client data except as your work and the firm’s policies require.
Mail sent from Legalease goes out under the firm’s name. Everything sent is attributable and logged.

Connected mailboxes

Connecting a mailbox is voluntary and can be undone at any time from Settings, or from your Google account’s third-party access page. What is stored, and what happens to it when you disconnect, is set out in the privacy policy.

Records

Consequential actions are recorded in an audit log — who created, changed, filed, sent or deleted what, and when. Document versions are immutable and are not removed when a document is revised. This is deliberate: the firm’s record of how a file came to be what it is has to survive ordinary editing.

Availability and liability

Legalease is provided to staff as-is for internal use. The firm does not guarantee uninterrupted availability, and staff should not rely on it as the sole record of a limitation date or other critical deadline without the checks the firm’s own practice requires.
