For lemon law firms
The settlement is signed. The payment record is still scattered.
A lemon law matter can reach agreement without creating one clean record of client proceeds, firm fees, costs, every other approved payee, delivery status, and the matching trust-account activity. Disbo keeps that last mile connected to the matter.
Settlement, recipients, payments, and records stay connected.
Client and other approved payments are coordinated from one review.
Payment status and ledger activity remain visible together.
Why this is not PI copy
Fewer medical liens does not mean a simpler financial close.
Personal injury disbursements often revolve around a long medical provider list. Lemon law matters have a different center of gravity: the negotiated resolution, client proceeds, attorney fees and matter costs, and whichever additional recipients the final agreement requires.
The operational risk comes after the legal work is done. A bank transaction may prove money moved, but it does not by itself preserve which matter authorized it, which settlement line it satisfied, whether a mailed item arrived, or whether the client ledger reconciles.
Disbo is the record and payment layer for that close. It does not interpret lemon law, calculate statutory entitlements, or replace attorney review.
From agreement to reconciled record
Close the financial side of the matter without rebuilding it in three systems.
Record the settlement against the matter
Keep the settlement amount, approval, client, firm fee, costs, and every intended payment together before money moves.
Confirm every payee and amount
Review the client proceeds and the other matter-specific recipients your agreement requires. Disbo does not decide legal entitlement; your team approves the final disbursement.
Send on visible payment rails
Use Quick Pay or Standard Pay when a recipient can accept an electronic payment. When paper is necessary, a Lob check is printed, mailed, and tracked.
Keep the trust record with the payment
Each outgoing payment remains tied to the matter and trust ledger, so outstanding items and reconciliation do not have to be rebuilt from a bank screen or spreadsheet.
Built with first-hand lemon law operating perspective.
Disbo founder Nathan Sumekh previously founded Simply Legal, a nationwide lemon law practice. The page’s focus on matter-level payment records, paper-check visibility, trust ledgers, and reconciliation comes from operating experience—not a practice-name swap.

“Four days later… I see minus $27,500 for my IOLTA.”
A small PI and lemon-law firm documented a cleared settlement check that was reversed after the matter had been disbursed. The firm also tracked reconciliation in a spreadsheet and regularly handled multiple checks per matter. This is a prospect account, not a claimed Disbo customer outcome.
