Built around the leave problems law firms actually face
Replace side spreadsheets, calendar guesswork, and manager inbox approvals with a single self-service leave system.
Matter cover matters
Fee earner leave needs to be checked against deadlines, client cover, hearings, completions, and team capacity.
TOIL is easy to lose
Late nights, weekend work, and transaction deadlines create time back that should not live in emails or memory.
Approvals get stuck
When a partner or team lead is away, holiday requests can sit unanswered unless delegation is clear.
Feature highlights for law firms
The complete core toolkit is included on Standard, so you do not need a larger HR suite just to manage leave properly.

Frequently asked questions
Can Leavely manage leave by legal department?
Yes. You can group employees by department, office, team, or role so approvers can check cover before accepting leave.
Does Leavely support TOIL for solicitors and support staff?
Yes. TOIL can be tracked alongside annual leave, sickness, study leave, and other custom leave types.
Can approval be delegated when a partner is away?
Yes. Leavely supports manager workflows that keep requests moving instead of leaving them buried in inboxes.
Is Leavely a full legal practice management system?
No. Leavely is focused on leave, absence, TOIL, rotas, and lightweight HR admin. It can run alongside your existing legal systems.
