Manual admin across scattered systems and spreadsheets.
One practice manager holding onboarding, payroll, leave, policies and compliance together, with no backup if they’re away.
Practising certificate renewals and records tracked across a spreadsheet, a calendar and somebody’s memory.
Partners, employed lawyers and support staff on different arrangements, reconciled by hand every pay cycle.
New lawyers and paralegals waiting on contracts, approvals and onboarding, instead of getting to client work.
Employment records scattered across inboxes and drives when you need to evidence something.

Why law firms are switching to Employment Hero
As business operations become more complex, manual processes and disconnected systems are no longer fit for purpose. These processes slow teams down, increase risk and reduce control. Employment Hero helps leaders in the legal sector run a more connected workforce.
Say goodbye to manual HR
In most firms, one person holds onboarding, payroll, leave, policy sign-off and compliance in their inbox. It works right up until it doesn’t: they take annual leave, they resign or the firm grows past what one person can carry.
Employment Hero gives that work a system to live in, so the practice manager gets to do the job they were actually hired for.
Partners, lawyers and support staff. One pay run.
Office A firm’s payroll rarely looks like anyone else’s. Partners on one arrangement; employed lawyers on another; support staff and part-timers with Holidays Act leave to calculate.
Our platform connects employee records, leave and timesheets to payroll. The pay run reflects the firm as it actually is, rather than as three spreadsheets describe it.
Find legal talent before the other firm does
Legal hiring is competitive and a strong candidate is usually talking to more than one firm.
Employment Hero’s Recruitment Agent screens applications and runs first-round video interviews for you. It also scores every candidate against the same rubric, so partners and practice managers can shortlist and get to offer quickly.
Keep the whole firm current when the law changes
Legislative change is your business and your own team has to stay across it too.
Build learning modules in-platform with videos, documents and quizzes. You can assign them across the firm and see at a glance who has completed what. The same works for internal policy updates.
From offer to billing, faster
A new lawyer waiting on paperwork is a new lawyer not billing. Build onboarding around how your firm works: issue and sign the agreement digitally, upload the practising certificate, assign confidentiality and conflict policies.
You can even run induction training digitally before day one.
Audit-ready, without the file hunt
When you need evidence that a policy was issued, acknowledged and current, the answer shouldn’t take an afternoon.
Keep contracts, policies and acknowledgements in one place with a record of who signed what and when. You can also send reminders to anyone outstanding.
