In a landmark development for the legal industry, SurePoint’s acquisition of ZenCase has paved the way for an unparalleled leap in practice management solutions. By seamlessly integrating Leopard Solutions’ industry-leading data into ZenCase, SurePoint has created a toolset that not only redefines traditional practice management but also equips law firms with cutting-edge insights to thrive in an increasingly competitive environment.
ZenCase is more than just a practice management tool; it is a new, modern, and innovative solution designed to simplify workflows and optimize efficiency. From automatic time tracking to intelligent document automation, ZenCase redefines how legal professionals manage their daily tasks.
The Vision Behind ZenCase
ZenCase was born out of necessity and personal experience. In 2013, TJ Fraser, a single dad juggling multiple high-profile legal roles, found himself overwhelmed. “I was the dog that caught the fire truck,” he recalls. As both the investment banker and corporate lawyer for Dream Finders Homes and the representative for the largest U.S. defense contractor in Middle East government contract disputes, Fraser’s workload was unmanageable.
That’s when inspiration struck. He turned to his neighbor with a simple question: could software be built to help him practice law more efficiently? From that conversation, ZenCase was created, built on a fundamental principle: increase quality and quantity while decreasing the time and resources needed to get things done. This benchmark remains the foundation of ZenCase’s success today.
ZenCase follows the “single-click rule,” ensuring that users can complete their tasks with as few steps as possible. Whether it’s tracking billable hours automatically, generating complex reports, or creating legal documents, ZenCase simplifies workflows for attorneys, paralegals, and firm administrators alike.
The Power of Leopard Solutions in ZenCase
Leopard Solutions, recognized as the largest and most accurate legal data platform, provides actionable intelligence on over 5,700 law firms and 6,500 U.S. corporate legal departments. The platform’s integration into ZenCase ensures that users have access to a treasure trove of data designed to help firms grow and compete effectively.
“By combining SurePoint’s technology with Leopard Solutions’ intelligence, we’re equipping law firms with the transformative tools they need to tackle their toughest challenges,” said Laura Leopard, Founder and GM of SurePoint’s Leopard Solutions.
With this integration, ZenCase clients gain complimentary access to four powerful reports, all seamlessly embedded within the platform:

Whether it’s understanding which practice areas excel in midsized firms in Texas or identifying which Florida firms lead in insurance law, the Current Market Report offers invaluable market intelligence.
- Current Firm Report: Drill down into specific firms with insights into headcount, recent hires, diversity metrics, practice areas, and more. Customizable filters make it easy to tailor reports to your firm’s unique needs.
- Competitor Match Tool: Pinpoint your competitors based on practice area and location, enabling strategic benchmarking and positioning to stay ahead.
Unlocking Business Development Opportunities
One of the most groundbreaking features now available in ZenCase is Leopard PROWESS, a sophisticated tool designed to help in-house counsel find and hire outside counsel. Law firms can enhance their profiles within the system by uploading billing rates, alternative fee agreements, and attorney biographies—features that allow firms of all sizes to compete on a level playing field with larger competitors.
ZenCase isn’t just about data—it’s about making legal practice management intuitive and efficient. Whether firms need to manage split fee billing, compute complex bonus structures, or generate reports in real-time, ZenCase provides solutions designed to be simple and easy to use.
“Imagine your clients fully present at birthday parties and little league games, engaging in meaningful moments without distractions. Great technology doesn’t just free them to focus on what matters—it also makes their firm more efficient, competitive, and profitable,” said Laura Leopard, emphasizing the human impact of these innovations.
ZenCase also empowers firms with future-ready capabilities, including a simplified Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and Leopard List integration, enabling smaller firms to streamline talent acquisition and retention. With tools to track attorneys’ probability of move scores and monitor top talent, firms can proactively manage their workforce and stay ahead of attrition risks.

This new synergy redefines the capabilities of practice management, tackling challenges such as inefficiency, talent acquisition, and strategic growth with unparalleled precision.
The decision to bring ZenCase into SurePoint’s comprehensive suite of legal tech solutions was an easy one, as it presented an opportunity to create a transformative platform that addresses the toughest challenges law firms face today,” said TJ Fraser, ZenCase Founder. “With ZenCase, firms can finally overcome inefficiency, complexity, and inaccuracy.
