Overview
Lawmatics is a legal-intake CRM built around matters (prospects and clients), contacts, companies, and legal-specific automations like conflict checks and retainer triggers. Twenty CRM is an open-source Salesforce alternative using standard CRM objects: People (contacts), Companies, Opportunities (deals), Notes, and Tasks—with unlimited custom fields and a workflow builder. The migration from Lawmatics to Twenty requires re-platforming from a legal-intake model to a general CRM model. We carry all contacts, companies, matters, activities, and custom fields. Lawmatics matters route to Twenty Opportunities since Twenty lacks a native matter/intake object. Legal-specific fields (practice area, case type, conflict-check status) migrate as custom fields. Lawmatics automations, email templates, intake forms, and workflow triggers do not migrate—those must be rebuilt in Twenty's workflow builder using exported definitions as reference. Our migration uses Lawmatics bulk export (Settings > Export) and Twenty's CSV import with column mapping, augmented by direct API reads for large datasets. Owner resolution matches Lawmatics users to Twenty workspace members by email before data lands.

Object mapping
Each row shows how a Lawmatics object lands in Twenty CRM, including any object-level transformations, lookup resolution, or schema-design dependencies.
Typical mapping — final map is confirmed during the sample migration step.
Lawmatics
Contact
Twenty CRM
People
1:1Lawmatics contacts map directly to Twenty People. Every contact field (name, email, phone, address) migrates as the equivalent Twenty People field. Lawmatics contacts without a primary company receive no default company assignment in Twenty—your team sets that manually post-migration or during import via a fallback rule.
Lawmatics
Company
Twenty CRM
Company
1:1Lawmatics companies map 1:1 to Twenty Companies. Company name, domain/website, industry, employee count, and annual revenue transfer directly. Lawmatics parent-child company hierarchies map to Twenty's recursive Company relation if your Twenty workspace has that field configured, otherwise parent relationships are stored as a custom field for manual linking.
Lawmatics
Matter
Twenty CRM
Opportunity
1:1Lawmatics matters (the core intake/lead/client object) map to Twenty Opportunities. This is the primary structural transformation: matter status (Prospect, Active Client, Closed) maps to Opportunity stage values you define in Twenty's pipeline settings. Matter create dates migrate as Opportunity creation timestamps. Lawmatics matter owners resolve to Twenty workspace members by email match before records land.
Lawmatics
Matter (legal-specific fields)
Twenty CRM
Opportunity (custom fields)
1:1Practice area (Family Law, Personal Injury, etc.), case type, statute of limitations date, conflict-check status, retainer amount, and referral source all need custom fields created in Twenty before the migration runs. We deliver a custom-field creation plan based on your Lawmatics custom field inventory so your Twenty workspace is schema-ready before data imports.
Lawmatics
Contact–Company Association (N:N)
Twenty CRM
People–Company Relation (1:N + custom relation)
1:1Lawmatics lets a single contact work across multiple firms. Twenty People records have one primary CompanyId. We migrate the primary company (most-recently-modified or by your specified rule) as the primary relation and create a custom multi-relation field in Twenty for additional company associations—your admin decides how to expose those in the UI post-migration.
Lawmatics
Activity / Timeline Event
Twenty CRM
Note / Task
1:1Lawmatics timeline activities (calls, emails, meetings, notes) migrate to Twenty Notes or Tasks depending on type. Emails and call logs become Tasks with Type='Email' or Type='Call'. Meetings with start/end times become Events. Notes become Twenty Notes attached to the parent People or Opportunity record. Original timestamps and assigned users are preserved.
Lawmatics
Tag
Twenty CRM
Custom Field (multi-select) / Note tag
1:1Lawmatics tags on contacts, companies, and matters migrate as comma-separated values in a Twenty custom multi-select field or as tags on Notes. If you use tags for segmentation, we recommend creating a dedicated custom field in Twenty for the primary tag taxonomy and attaching remaining tags as a Note for reference.
Lawmatics
Custom Form Response
Twenty CRM
Note / Custom Fields
1:1Lawmatics custom form submissions are stored as form-field responses linked to matters. Twenty has no native form-submission object. We surface form response data as Notes on the related Opportunity (migrated matter) or as individual custom fields if the form is a fixed structure. Dynamic intake forms with conditional logic cannot be reconstructed in Twenty without a separate form tool integration.
Lawmatics
Document / File Attachment
Twenty CRM
Note / External storage reference
1:1Lawmatics file attachments on matters and contacts re-upload to Twenty as Notes with file links, or we store the original Lawmatics file URL as a text field for reference. File size limits and storage costs in Twenty cloud apply—larger document archives may warrant a separate document management strategy post-migration.
Lawmatics
Automation / Workflow
Twenty CRM
— (must be rebuilt)
1:1Lawmatics automations (triggers, conditions, actions) do not migrate. We export your automation definitions as JSON reference files for your Twenty admin. Time-based triggers (e.g., reminder 1hr before appointment), action-based triggers (status change), and email sequences must be rebuilt in Twenty's workflow builder. Budget 2–4 weeks for a mid-size automation set to be fully reconstructed.
Lawmatics
Email Template / Sequence
Twenty CRM
— (must be rebuilt)
1:1Lawmatics email templates and drip sequences used in automations do not transfer to Twenty. We export template content (subject, body HTML, merge fields) as text files. Your Twenty admin recreates templates in the connected email tool or uses Twenty's CRM email features. Merge field mappings are documented so the correct Twenty fields are referenced in rebuilt templates.
Lawmatics
User / Team Member
Twenty CRM
Workspace Member
1:1Lawmatics users map to Twenty workspace members. Resolution happens by email address match before migration—unmatched users are flagged and assigned to a fallback Twenty user you designate. Lawmatics role-based permissions (Attorney, Paralegal, Intake Coordinator) do not have a direct Twenty equivalent; Twenty's role system uses more granular object-level permissions that must be reconfigured post-migration.

Gotchas + challenges
Platform-specific issues from each side, plus the pair-specific challenges that don't show up on either platform's page on its own.
Lawmatics gotchas
Matter vs. Contact export schema isolation
Time and billing add-on gating
Contact tier limits affect migration scoping
Automations are not data objects
API rate limits not publicly documented
Twenty CRM gotchas
Import order is enforced and critical
Export limited to 20,000 records and visible columns only
Soft-deleted records count toward uniqueness and trigger restores
API rate limits cap at 200 req/min on Organization tier
No native email sequences — follow-up cadences require external tools
Pair-specific challenges
Migration approach
Audit Lawmatics data and prepare Twenty schema
FlitStack reads your Lawmatics bulk export (Settings > Export) to inventory all object types, field names, custom field definitions, and activity history. We cross-reference against Twenty's standard field set and generate a custom-field creation checklist for your Twenty workspace. You create those fields in Settings > Data Model before we proceed. We also identify N:N contact-company associations, multi-stage matters, and any data that requires transformation logic.
Resolve owners and invite users to Twenty
Lawmatics matter owners and contact assigned users are matched to Twenty workspace members by email address. We run the email resolution step before migration—any Lawmatics user without a corresponding Twenty member is flagged and assigned to a fallback owner you designate. Twenty requires users to exist before user references in imported records can resolve correctly; we confirm all users have accepted their Twenty invitations before records land.
Migrate companies first, then people, then opportunities
Twenty's CSV import enforces referential integrity: companies must exist before people (via companyId), and people/companies must exist before opportunities that reference them. We sequence the migration in three passes: (1) Companies, (2) People with companyId links resolved, (3) Opportunities with contact roles and custom fields populated. Custom fields are created in advance so each pass lands cleanly. Activity history (Notes, Tasks) follows the opportunity pass.
Run sample migration with field-level diff
Run sample migration with field-level diff. Before committing the full migration, we run a representative sample—typically 100–500 records spanning contacts, companies, matters, and a few activities. We generate a field-level diff comparing source Lawmatics values against the Twenty destination fields so you can verify practice-area mapping, status-to-stage routing, owner resolution, and date preservation. You sign off on the sample before the full run proceeds.
Full migration with delta pickup and audit log
The full migration runs against Twenty. A delta-pickup window (typically 24–48 hours post-cutover) captures any records created or modified in Lawmatics during the migration window so your Twenty workspace reflects Lawmatics' final state at go-live. FlitStack produces an audit log of every record created, updated, or skipped, with reasons for any non-transferred records. One-click rollback is available if reconciliation reveals mapping errors.
