As lawyers, we all spend time and money learning to improve our deposition skills, our jury trial skills, etc. It makes just as much sense to spend a little time and money to sharpen our billing skills to ensure we are keeping detailed records, capturing all time, and meeting our ethical obligation to our clients to maintain contemporaneous, accurate time records.
Invite the author, Annie Dike, to come speak to your students, lawyers, or paralegals about the realities of day-to-day life in the practice of law and how to ease the stress of keeping contemporaneous time records.
Request access to a 60-minute ethics webinar you can share anytime with your students, lawyers, or staff that will help them capture more time and describe tasks more effectively to meet client billing guidelines.
