Case study

Recovering the billable hours a firm was losing.

How a mid-size litigation firm stopped reconstructing time from memory and started billing the work it was already doing.

The challenge

Time was being rebuilt from memory at 6 p.m.

Attorneys were doing the work all day and reconstructing their entries at the end of it — guessing at durations, thinning narratives, and quietly dropping the small tasks. The hours that slipped through never made it onto a bill.

The solution

Capture as you work, review in five minutes.

LegalTime captured each document, email, call, and research session as it happened, drafted a time entry for every task, and held them for a quick end-of-day review before releasing the approved entries into the firm’s billing system.

The result

+11%

billable hours captured from work already being done

6+ hrs

per attorney per week no longer lost to reconstruction

+$20K

in recovered billings per timekeeper, per year
