The Nebraska State Bar Association and Smokeball Grant Nebraska Lawyers Free Access to Trust & Billing Software

Smokeball will put trust accounting technology in the hands of all Nebraska State Bar Association members at no cost, enabling them to improve client service and maintain compliance  

Lincoln, NE — July 8, 2024 - Smokeball, the industry-leading legal practice management software platform, today announced an exclusive partnership with the Nebraska State Bar Association (NSBA) to provide all NSBA members with free access to Smokeball Bill, Smokeball’s trust accounting and billing software solution. This tool will help solo and small legal practitioners effectively, efficiently and compliantly manage their client trust accounts for improved client service.  

Smokeball and the NSBA recognize the important role solo and small law firms play in every local community. However, many of these firms struggle to handle trust accounting and billing compliantly. According to the 2023 State of U.S. Small Law Firms Report, software for case management, legal research and e-billing/invoicing are some of the biggest technology needs for law practices. Firms often rely on manual processes that hinder, disrupt or delay more high-value client work. By providing Smokeball Bill for free, all attorneys that are members of the NSBA will now have access to a user-friendly software solution that ensures trust accounting compliance and simplifies billing.  

“The mission of the NSBA is to help Nebraska lawyers achieve the highest standards of competence, ethics and professionalism” said Liz Neeley, Executive Director of the Nebraska State Bar Association. “Providing Smokeball Bill to our members for free, which helps them meet their compliance obligations while supporting their practice,  is a key step toward achieving that mission.”

Manually managing trust accounting often leads to compliance errors and malpractice claims. Smokeball Bill makes it simple for law firm members to easily comply with trust accounting regulations. The software also helps firms more easily send and collect invoices and bills.  

“From its beginning, Smokeball has prioritized the lives of small law firm practitioners and the vibrant communities these lawyers serve,” said Jane Oxley, CRO and co-founder of Smokeball. “We believe being able to manage trust accounts in an efficient and compliant manner shouldn’t be reserved for larger firms or those with access to more resources.  

This is Smokeball's second product partnership of its kind with a state bar association, following the announcement of its partnership with the State Bar of Texas in June 2024.
