Now
Take a full backup from KanzLaw and store it outside the program. Ask the vendor in writing about export formats, end of support and read access after 31 Dec.
By 31 October
Count active cases, clients, open deadlines, receivables and archived files. Create a LexA trial account and run a real case from intake to invoice.
By 7 November
Free initial analysis of your legacy data, field mapping, binding fixed-price offer. Migration scope is defined in writing before the project starts.
By 21 November
Import into a sandbox. Spot checks on deadlines, parties, receivables and document assignment. Deviations are corrected before the production import.
From 1 December
Production import, about one day of training per seat, new matters only in LexA. KanzLaw stays available read-only until everything is reconciled.
By 15 December
Open deadlines reconciled, beA mailbox retrieved in LexA, archived files stored as PDF/A. Retention duties under § 50 BRAO and § 257 HGB are then met independently of the vendor.
We guide your switch in four phases: analysis, test migration, production migration, acceptance. After a free initial analysis you receive a binding fixed-price offer; scope and limits are agreed beforehand. If a technical migration of your legacy system is not possible, we refund migration services already invoiced but not yet delivered. We migrate cases, clients, parties, documents, deadlines, follow-ups, time entries and invoices.
Go to the migration pageCreate a trial account, run a real case, schedule the initial analysis. Your migration is then settled before December begins.
