Law firm CRM for the UAE and the Gulf
Qadiyo is a law firm CRM for firms in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and across the Gulf. It manages new business from the first enquiry to a signed engagement letter, and works alongside the software your firm already uses for matters.
Every new enquiry gets an owner, a next step and a reply deadline. The client then books, uploads documents and signs on one private page, in English or Arabic.
What to look for
A law firm CRM is the system that looks after new work before it becomes a matter. For a partner, that means knowing who owns each enquiry, how long it has waited and what happens next. Here is what that looks like in Qadiyo.
Connect the form on your website, share your own Qadiyo enquiry link, paste in a WhatsApp chat or an email, and log phone calls and walk-ins in a few taps. Everything lands in one list with one owner each.
Your firm gets a private forwarding address. Emails sent or forwarded to it become enquiries, or are added to the client's open enquiry.
Professional and Firm
Routing rules by practice area mean employment goes to the employment team and property to property. Change the rules whenever you like.
Set how quickly enquiries should be answered. The owner is reminded before the deadline, and the right people are told if it passes. Call-backs show up as tasks.
Qadiyo checks the client and the other side against your contacts, earlier enquiries and the past matters you import. It matches Gulf spellings and names written in Arabic script. Any match goes to a partner, and the decision is recorded.
One secure link where the client books a consultation, sees your payment link or bank details, and uploads the documents you ask for. It opens in English or Arabic, and the client can switch. Qadiyo never handles the money.
An individual or company checklist on each enquiry. Your team records the checks, and a high-risk client needs a partner's approval before the matter goes ahead.
Professional and Firm
Prepare the letter from your template and the client signs on their page. Qadiyo keeps a record of who signed, when, and the exact text they signed.
Professional and Firm
A morning briefing for each person on what is due and what is slipping, and a partner report every week or month on what came in, how fast you replied and what became work.

An honest answer
They are different tools for different stages, and many firms use both.
A law firm CRM looks after new business: the enquiry, the reply, the conflict check, the consultation, the documents and the engagement letter. It answers the question “who is this person and have we won their work yet?”
Case management software, also called practice management, looks after the matter once you have it: the file, court dates, deadlines on the case, time recording and billing.
Qadiyo is a CRM for new business. It is not case management software. It does not record time, produce invoices or run your matters. When an enquiry becomes a client, you carry on in whatever your firm uses for matters, and the client's details, documents and signed engagement letter come with them.
| Compared | Law firm CRM (Qadiyo) | Case management software |
|---|---|---|
| Starts | When an enquiry arrives | When you take the matter on |
| Ends | A signed engagement letter | When the matter closes |
| Main question | Who owns this enquiry and what happens next? | What is due on this matter and what do we bill? |
| Typical work | Replies, conflict checks, consultations, documents, KYC, engagement letters | Files, court dates, time recording, invoices |
If your firm loses work between the first message and the signed letter, that is the gap a CRM fills.

Only the people your firm invites can see your enquiries and client records, and your firm can export all of its data. The privacy notice explains where data is stored and who processes it.
