FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Are you a law firm?
No. File.Business is not a law firm and we do not provide legal advice. We prepare and file documents; the legal judgment belongs to the attorney.
IOLTA billing?
Yes. We support trust-account billing and disbursement workflows for client funds.
Multi-attorney firms?
Yes. Roles: Partner, Associate, Paralegal. Matter assignment, conflicts check, audit trail per action.
UPL concerns?
We are document preparers and a filing service. The attorney provides legal advice; our paralegals do administrative work under attorney supervision through the workspace.
Privileged document custody?
Yes. SOC 2 Type II, encrypted per-document keys, immutable audit log. We do not access client matter documents.
Conflicts check?
We surface name conflicts (entity name search against existing state records). Matter-level conflict checking is your firm responsibility.
Trademark prosecution?
Yes. Search, classification, application, office action responses through registration. Maintenance Section 8 and Section 9 tracked.
Multi-state coordination?
Yes. When a client foreign-qualifies, we coordinate amendments and annual reports across every state.
Billing flexibility?
You can pass-through fees to clients (we bill them) or absorb (we bill you). Hybrid is common: pass-through for state fees, absorb for service fees.
