Billing is vitally important to the legal practice. Not only is it necessary to collect payment, but it also keeps your clients up-to-date on their cases and the work being completed on their behalf.
Unfortunately, many attorneys and their legal staff find themselves spending just as much time creating bills as they do completing billable tasks. It’s not because they enjoy tracking time and creating bills. It’s because their billing systems lack the features to effectively streamline this process. As one happy converter noted, her firm’s billing process went from six days with TimeSlips down to two days with TimeSolv.
In part four of this series, I’m going to examine how TimeSolv saves its users time, so you can spend less time creating bills and more time actually billing.
Time tracking
TimeSolv streamlines the time tracking process with a user-focused interface that boosts your productivity. By customizing the process, you can automate your time tracking to save you and your staff valuable hours. You can also run multiple timers simultaneously to track numerous tasks quickly.
Invoicing
With more than 10 billing formats, you can choose to create PDFs, spreadsheets, or word documents. Pick the option that works best for your practice, so you can create invoices efficiently. Take advantage of the multi-step approval process to catch mistakes before bills go out to clients, which saves you the time of doubling back and fixing errors. How many hours does your support staff spend calculating tax liabilities? TimeSolv does it for you to save time and promote compliance.
Expense Tracking
Inefficient expense tracking can waste a lot of time. Crumpled receipts and overstuffed file cabinets lead to unnecessary scavenger hunts and excessive backtracking. With TimeSolv’s expense tracking capabilities, you can easily organize all of your firm’s expenditures and import them into relevant bills. With the TimeSolv app, you can even track expenses when there is no internet connection and sync them when the opportunity arises.
There’s no shortage of complaints about the “traditional” billing systems, but one of the most common is how difficult they are to use. With TimeSolv time tracking and billing software, you can provide your law practice with the necessary tools for greater efficiency and time management.
