Several recent surveys have revealed that the scrutiny faced by legal billing has reached new heights. Clients are demanding more transparency in their representation, especially in terms of billing.

One survey in particular showed that almost 80% of law firms had significant numbers of invoices rejected due to failures to comply with client billing requirements.

Although this trend happens to coincide with a trend of more cost-conscious clients, new technology has enabled clients to take a more critical eye toward their legal invoices.

Small and mid-sized law firms have their work cut out for them. Over the last several years, most large law firms have created internal R&D departments to increase efficiency and improve the delivery of their services.

However, small and mid-sized firms most often simply do not have the budget for such efforts.

Quite the contrary, lawyers who manage their practices by themselves have the unenviable task of balancing the administrative aspects of running a business with demanding responsibilities of maintaining high-level advocacy for their clients.

A plethora of recent news reports show how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being integrated into more and more facets of the professional world each year.

The legal field is no exception. AI and machine learning have created ways to save attorneys time and increase the level of accuracy of various legal tasks.

Moreover, the applications that support law firms now offer new insights into productivity โ€” something that is useful for both attorneys and their administrative staff.

Unlike other types of businesses, the time lawyers spend on attracting potential clients and retaining existing ones is often written off, inaccurately tracked, or not tracked at all in many law firms.

Similarly, many law firms do not calculate or compare the expected revenues over time that various types of clients might provide, although this is a frequent practice in other types of businesses.

In this vein, this article discusses two prominent metrics commonly used in the business worldโ€”โ€œcustomer acquisition costโ€ and โ€œcustomer lifetime valueโ€โ€”and how law firms might use those metrics to improve profitability.

While other industries have steadily moved toward Artificial intelligence (AI) and automation to improve efficiency, law firms are still rife with manual tasks. These tasks not only drain resources but also expose your firm to potential errors and lost revenue.

Thankfully, technology has evolved to provide simple and effective solutions for these tasks.

In fact, legal technology has recently improved with AI and machine learning. Both allow for firms to automate manual processes, thereby dramatically reducing overhead expenses and significantly improving law firm efficiency.

A recent American Lawyer survey of midlevel associates revealed that one of the primary reasons for dissatisfaction with their jobs was "borderline unusable" and "very slow" technology.

This article addresses how technology can play a significant role in addressing some of these issues and improving employee retention.
