Frequently ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ'S)
What is legal e-billing software?
Legal e-billing software enables corporate legal departments to automate the process of review and approval (or rejection) of invoices received from law firms. It also allows law firms to submit invoices in a standardized format (LEDES), to capture detailed information about the work being billed. Legal e-billing solutions are a powerful tool to identify cost-saving measures both in the immediate term and by making use of data-driven strategies for the future.
Why use legal e-billing software?
e-Billing software produces an electric file, specific to legal. It contains not only the invoice header, matter information and bill totals, but a detailed breakdown of timelines, timekeepers and expenses coded against tasks, activities and expenses. A legal-specific e-Billing solution is essential to capture this level of detail; standard accounts payable (AP) systems cannot capture this. With the increased pressure on legal departments to improve efficiency and control costs, e-Billing is a solution that quickly generates savings that pay for the investment so is a popular software purchase for legal operations managers. The benefits of e-Billing are directly related to reducing costs so it’s easy to prove return on investment (ROI) quickly. Download our guide to building the business case for e-Billing
