Search

Lawzana Flow helps you find leads, matters, contacts and matter documents from one search box.

Press ⌘K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Windows/Linux) from anywhere in the app to open the command palette. This is the fastest way to find things.

  • Leads — By name, email, phone or message
  • Matters — By title, description or client name
  • Contacts — By name, email, phone or company
  • Files — Documents attached to matters, by file name or matter title
  • Actions — Jump to the main pages (Home, Leads, Matters, Contacts, Settings, Drafting, Files, Assistant, Conflicts), or create a lead or a contact

How to Use#

  1. Press ⌘K or Ctrl+K
  2. Start typing your search term
  3. Results appear as you type, grouped by type (Leads, Matters, Contacts, Files)
  4. Use ↑ and ↓ arrow keys to move through results, and click one to open it
  5. Press Enter to see every result on the Search page, or choose Deep Search to look inside your documents
  6. Press Esc to close
Tip
The command palette searches across all categories simultaneously. You don't need to specify what you're looking for — just type.

Search is built to forgive small mistakes:

  • Results appear as you type, even with typos
  • Typo tolerance — Finds results even with small spelling mistakes
  • Partial matching — Finds results from the first letters of a word
  • Searches across names, emails, phone numbers, file names and matter titles

The Search page has two modes. Standard Search finds leads, matters, contacts and matter documents, with filters for All, Leads, Matters, Contacts and Files. Deep Search looks inside the content and AI summaries of matter documents, to find clauses, terms or parties. Files that aren't attached to a matter are searched from the search box on Documents → Files.

Search from List Views#

Leads, Matters, Contacts and Files each have their own search:

  • Leads (list view): search by name, email or phone
  • Matters: Filters → Matter Title matches the matter title or client name
  • Contacts: search by name, email, phone or company
  • Files: search by file name

The list filters in real time as you type, and combines with the other filters on that page.

Filters#

Combine search with filters for precise results:

Section Available Filters
Leads Stage, Needs attention

  3. Name the filter, and optionally pin it to the toolbar
  4. Load, pin, unpin, delete or Set default from the Saved menu
