Accounting & Payments
The 10-step gauntlet you run on every single case.
Your firm holds millions in client funds, but your disbursement process looks like it's from 1995. Medical providers, lien holders, referral attorneys, and the client — everyone waits for a paper check while your paralegals burn hours on manual data entry.
1. The Check Arrives
The carrier check clears. Time to begin the gauntlet.
2. The Spreadsheet
Pulling med logs, calculating attorney fees, and splitting the pie by hand.
3. The Paper Trail
Chasing signatures, authorizations, and W-9s from providers.
4. The Accounting
Manually entering the disbursement into QuickBooks and the trust ledger.
5. Print 6-12 Checks
Loading the magnetic ink printer, cutting checks for every provider.
6. Partner Signatures
Stacking checks on the managing partner's desk to get signed.
7. Stuff & Stamp
Folding, stuffing, stamping, and dropping envelopes in the mail.
8. The Waiting Game
Waiting weeks for checks to be received, deposited, and cleared.
9. The Lost Check
A provider calls. The check never arrived. Void, reissue, repeat.
10. Month-End Dread
Reconciling the bank statement against a messy spreadsheet ledger.
Replace the gauntlet with one smooth motion.
Disbo handles the entire disbursement lifecycle. No magnetic ink, no signature chasing, no mystery checks in the mail. Just clear, tracked, compliant payments.
1. Data flows in
Import the case directly from Filevine or upload via CSV. Settlement amounts and lien balances populate instantly.
2. Disbo runs the math
Attorney fees, medical liens, costs, and client distributions are calculated from your terms. The settlement sheet is generated automatically.
3. One click pays everyone
Quick Pay sends funds in 2-3 days, Standard Pay in 4-7 days, or Disbo prints and tracks a physical check via Lob.
The risk of doing nothing is higher than you think.
Paper checks get stolen. Trust accounts get clawed back. And state bars don't accept "we were busy" as an excuse for failed reconciliation.
Connects with your system of record.
Stop doing double data entry. Live two-way integrations move case and settlement details into Disbo, then return payment, ledger, and reconciliation status to the systems your firm already uses.
Questions managing partners actually ask.
Yes. Disbo enforces state-specific trust accounting rules automatically. Whether your state requires monthly, quarterly, or on-demand three-way reconciliation, Disbo generates the reports and maintains the documentation. The compliance engine prevents overdisbursements, flags unusual transactions, and ensures every trust account action follows your state bar's requirements.
Stop hand-writing checks.

Disbo handles the entire settlement disbursement — trust accounting, compliance, multi-party payments, and real-time reconciliation — so your team can focus on winning cases, not managing paperwork.
