Breakthrough eBilling technology allows accounting and finance departments to work directly with attorneys to ensure billing guidelines are met. By validating attorneys' timecards in real-time against client billing rules at the moment of time entry, firms can reduce rejected invoices, resubmissions, and delays in collections. This helps educate attorneys and streamlines the billing process for faster cycles and less wasted man-hours.
