Atlantic Associates Software
What it is
Desktop legal time tracking and billing software (product name: TimeManager) for Mac and Windows, for 1-100 person workgroups. Founded 1992 in Sudbury, MA by Tim Coogan. Perpetual license model ($895/user per Capterra, free 30-day trial). Features: time tracking with built-in timer, invoicing, LEDES invoice generation, client/matter management. Can run as client/server within local network. Mac-native legal billing was a rare differentiator at launch but modern cloud tools (Clio, CosmoLex) now work on Mac via browser. Desktop-only architecture: no cloud sync, no mobile app, no web access — significant limitation for remote/hybrid firms. Also makes ClassManager (educational). Capterra rating 4.9/5 (11 reviews). 24/7 live rep support. Not mentioned in major ‘best legal billing’ roundup articles. Zero Reddit community presence. Website actively maintained (©2026). Competes with Clio ($39-129/mo), CosmoLex ($99/mo), LeanLaw. Best fit: cost-conscious solo/small firms wanting a one-time purchase over monthly SaaS subscriptions, especially Mac users comfortable with desktop software.
