LAA UPDATE: The LAA have announced that their new bulk upload portal will go live in February 2026. Lawsyst team are pleased to share that our systems are ready for the new changes. There is nothing new to learn in Lawsyst but please ensure that you are abreast with the new SaBC portal. Please note that you will no longer be able to create claims on the SaBC portal. You must upload the bulk-upload file each month even if with zero claims. Secondly, the new SaBC portal will allow one bulk-upload per contract each month. Previously providers were able to upload one bulk upload file for multiple contracts. This means that the providers will need to allow more time for the billing purposes. Finally, the LAA will require retrospect bulk-upload files that must include the 'New Fee Code' to be uploaded for the contingency period. We are pleased to share that Lawsyst system supports creation of bulk-upload files in the new format for any previous months.     We are hiring. If you have experience in the legal tech industry, we would love to talk to you. Please send your CV to info@lawsyst.co.uk

Legal Aid Hourly Rate Calculator for Police Station Work

This Legal Aid billing calculator is designed for solicitors and law firms carrying out criminal investigation and police station work under the Legal Aid contract. It enables practitioners to accurately identify the applicable hourly rates and fixed fees for a wide range of police station matters.

The calculator covers key categories of work, including duty and own solicitor attendances, serious offence cases, and non-social hours work. It distinguishes between London and National rates and takes account of designated area arrangements, ensuring that the correct rates are applied based on where the work is carried out.

In addition, the calculator supports the accurate preparation of CRM11 forms, helping firms produce compliant claims by applying the correct rates to the work undertaken. The Lawsyst team maintains this tool to ensure rates and calculations remain aligned with current Legal Aid Agency guidance.

Feedback and suggestions for further enhancements are welcome.
