The Open Matter Plans Network provides free, community-curated employment & labour workflow templates specifically designed for Federal practitioners. Our Federal employment & labour library currently includes 7 matter plans, including 4 specialised derivative forks. Each plan provides a structured checklist covering every stage of a legal matter, from initial instructions through to completion, with estimated time units, key dates, and role assignments.
All plans are maintained by verified legal practitioners and aligned to the SALI Alliance Legal Matter Standard Specification for taxonomy and interoperability. Plans can be exported to CSV for integration with your practice management system, or accessed programmatically via our JSON API.
