Step 1: Firm Information

Let's start by setting up your firm's account. This should take about 1 minute.

* Required fields

Your law firm's official name (used for identification only)
Choose a username for logging into the dashboard (lowercase letters and numbers only)
Choose a strong password (minimum 8 characters)

🔒 Security Note

Your password is encrypted with bcrypt hashing before storage. We never store passwords in plain text.

Step 2: Email Monitoring

Connect the email account that receives Evidence.com download notifications. This allows LawPlanned to automatically detect new evidence files.

* Required fields

📧 Gmail Users - Important!

If using Gmail, you MUST create an app-specific password (not your regular Gmail password):

1. Visit: https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords
2. Enable 2-Step Verification (if not already enabled)
3. Generate password for "Mail" → "LawPlanned"
4. Copy the 16-character code and use it below

The email account that receives Evidence.com download notifications
Gmail: App-specific password (16 characters, no spaces)
Other email providers: Your regular email password
Leave as default (imap.gmail.com) if using Gmail. For Outlook: outlook.office365.com

💡 Why Test Connection?

We'll verify your credentials before saving them. This ensures everything works correctly and prevents errors later.
