One workspace.
Connect your firm email, personal email and any other account. FernLex brings them together — while keeping each one distinctly yours. Send from the account you choose for each message.

Firm vs. personal
Your firm email. Your personal email.
Always separate.
FernLex knows which email is your firm account and which is personal. Firm email is visible to your team. Personal email stays yours alone.

Send from the account you intend
Every compose window shows which account will send the email. Switch accounts before sending — so the client sees your firm address, not your personal Gmail.
Hi James,
Following up on the settlement conference scheduled for next Thursday. I've reviewed the opposing counsel's proposal and have a few counterpoints we should discuss before the meeting.
Can we schedule a call this week to align on strategy?
Best,
Sarah Hartley

Thanks Michael. I've reviewed sections 1-4. A few notes on the interrogatories — can we strengthen the language on paragraph 12?
