ProLaw Adds Secure Payment Process Functionality through Piracle Integration

LOS ANGELES, Mar. 10, 2011 – Piracle, one of the world’s leading providers of secure payment solutions, has integrated its Create-A-Check software with ProLaw to enable a simple check-writing process with email capability when processing automated clearing house (ACH) payments. Piracle is an Integration Partner with ProLaw, the leading One Office™ financial and practice management system for small and mid-size law firms and corporate legal departments.

Piracle’s Create-A-Check software allows ProLaw to receive data and create magnetic ink character recognition (MICR)-encoded documents, such as checks and deposit slips. ProLaw clients can also easily generate electronic files for positive pay, direct deposit, vendor payments and IRS forms such as 1099, W2 and others. Create-A-Check offers the highest level of security with comprehensive password protection and data encryption for logos, signatures and program data. 

“Partners play an important role in ensuring that ProLaw offers the most advanced technology and functionality,” said Matthew DeVoll, vice president and general manager, ProLaw. “We are pleased to be working with Piracle to offer our clients a more secure, efficient and cost-effective means of managing check payments.”

“It’s vital for our business to seek out new ways to grow and develop,” said John Bechard, CEO of Piracle. “Expanding our strategic partner base with leading enterprise software solutions like ProLaw is a great way to maximize that growth.”

Piracle recently released Create-A-Check 10, which is the most recent update of its most popular software program. First developed in 1991, Create-A-Check manages the check writing process from printing to delivery to the bank. Businesses are able to write accounts payable checks using blank paper stock, cutting down on the costs and risks of storing pre-printed checks. For added security, a Create-A-Check positive pay module can send a record of all check details that is customized for the bank’s specific positive pay application. This helps the bank confirm the check-processing information to guard against electronic theft.

The ProLaw Alliance Program creates new growth opportunities for businesses with services and applications that complement ProLaw. The ideal partner provides technical and business support and/or software add-on modules that can be provided directly to ProLaw users. Once approved members, partners have access to a variety of marketing, technical and training resources. For more information on the ProLaw Alliance Program, visit www.elite.com/prolaw/partners/.
