As a law firm, it's essential to present your clients with invoices that are not only professional but also in line with your brand image. Lawcus makes it easy to customize your invoices to your exact specifications and save them as templates, streamlining the invoicing process and saving you time.

In this article, we provide a step-by-step guide to creating custom invoice templates using Lawcus:

1. To access the invoice template settings, click on your user avatar in the top-right corner, then select "Settings."

2. From there, click on "Bill Settings" and then "Invoice Templates."

3. Finally, click on "Add Template" to create your new invoice template.

To choose an invoice theme that fits your style, review each option to determine which one appeals to you. We recommend the Pro theme for its professional and elegant appearance, making it an excellent choice for your needs.

Select a theme or accent color that not only looks good but also complements your law firm's logo or branding color. If you don't have any suitable options available, you can use a search engine to find color codes that match your preferences better.

Specify the default payment period for clients to pay the full invoice amount before it becomes overdue.

You can customize the text labels on your invoice from "Billed To" to "Matter," "Invoice Number," "Issued Date," and "Due Date" by editing or removing them below.

You have the option to control which aspects of your law firm's details appear on the invoice by checking or unchecking relevant check boxes. By default, all checkboxes are checked.

Additionally, you can add your company logo, address, and currency to each invoice template. This feature is particularly useful if you have multiple office locations, as you can customize the invoice templates accordingly to bill your clients accurately.
