Client portal
Your clients get one secure place to upload documents, see where their case is up to, and read your updates, and it carries your firm's name, colours, and logo from the first invite onward.
Your practice deserves better software.
Matter is the operating system for modern professional practices: client portal, document management, case records, notes, tasks, collaboration, status, follow-up, and forms. CASA Tier 3 security-tested. No installs, no setup fees.

Legacy practice software stored the record while your team still had to chase missing documents, manage follow-up, prepare uploads, answer status questions, and keep each matter moving. Matter keeps the record, the portal, and the admin work connected in one place.
That changes both sides of the experience: your team gets a cleaner working system, and your clients get a modern portal that feels like your practice instead of a clunky add-on.
Matter is practice software for migration agents, tax accountants, lawyers, and other modern professional firms. Your old software stored pieces of the file. Matter brings the daily practice workflow together: client portal, document management, records, notes, tasks, collaboration, status, follow-up, preparation, deadlines, and delivery.

Your team should not have to reconstruct the file from inboxes and spreadsheets. Matter brings case work, document follow-up, notes, communication, and compliance into one working system.
Your clients get one secure place to upload documents, see where their case is up to, and read your updates, and it carries your firm's name, colours, and logo from the first invite onward.
Turn the documents you need from a client into one tracked request list, with upload status, due dates, and follow-up notes, sitting right on the matter.
Break a case into the steps it takes, assign them across your team, set due dates, and escalate when something needs review, all attached to the case.
Build a set of tasks once for a case type, with default assignees, deadlines, and reminders, then apply it to any case in one step.
Every lodgement date, document deadline, and review point across your active matters lands in one calendar, so the next thing due is visible while there is still time to act on it.
Matter sends scheduled client reminders for outstanding document requests, so routine follow-up moves from manual chaser emails into controlled case workflow.
Send a client update from inside the matter you are working in, so the email stays attached to the case instead of disappearing into a personal inbox.
File notes live on the matter, and every edit keeps its earlier version, so you can see what was recorded and exactly what changed, not just the latest rewrite.
Every action on a case is recorded with who did it and when, so when a client asks or you need to show your work, the history is already there.
Practice Settings groups everything that defines how a matter runs, from practice areas and portal branding to reusable templates, case keys, roles, workflow stages, and value lists, so each new case opens from a setup you built once.
Matter includes configurable records so your practice can define and capture the facts it needs on contacts, organisations, and team members.
Matter includes client-friendly questionnaires that live in the client portal and keep answers connected to the matter, not trapped in a generic form tool.
Matter includes a migration forms library for high-value Australian immigration forms such as Form 80, Form 956, Form 1229, and 482-related workflows.
Matter automates fill and generation for common Department PDFs such as Form 80, Form 956, and Form 1229, using reviewed matter data instead of manual retyping.
See both sides
One matter powers both sides of the experience: the internal portal keeps the file moving, and the client portal gives people a clear place for uploads, progress, and updates.
The agent portal keeps requests, notes, history, and follow-up together. The client portal gives every client a branded home for documents, messages, and onboarding instead of long email threads.


The portal looked better to clients straight away, but the bigger change was finally having requests, uploads, and follow-up tied to the matter instead of scattered through inboxes.
