Time Tracker Legal Software Automation Improves Law Firm Efficiency and Success
New Jersey, NY – January 25, 2019 – The 2018 Clio Industry Report asked over 70,000 legal professionals what goals define their firm’s success and 84% placed revenue at the top of the list. Improving the firm’s operational efficiency came in just below at 80%. Law firms also consistently struggle to dedicate time to billable work. In an average 8-hour workday, utilization rates (the number of billable hours worked divided by the number of hours in a day) was just 30%; a mere 2.4 hours of the 8 hours worked. When you factor in the number of billable hours that don’t get reflected on an invoice and the amounts which never get paid, the average lawyer earns just 1.6 hours in billable work each day. This data suggests strongly the crucial need for improved efficiency and automation to increase revenues and prevent serious profitability issues.
eBillity’s Time Tracker Legal software enables law firms to automate their time tracking, expenses and billing. The mobile app allows the user to set up push notifications to remind them to track time, and has multi-timers that can automatically track their time by different clients with a push of a button. This automation alone can reduce administration time by up to 10+ hours per month, and by tracking time down to the second, billable hours have proven to increase by up to 20%.
Dennis Murphy from Hill Law Firm one of eBillity customers states, “my experience with Time Tracker over the past five years has been strongly favorable. I like that I can track my time not only by date but also across matters. The report function allows me to see how much time has been billed to each matter at any given period.”
Time Tracker’s free apps for Outlook and Windows 10 allow the user to convert emails and calendar events into time entries and work offline. The product also connects with Apps like IFTTT and Zapier to automate repetitive tasks. Law firms can also automate expense tracking by taking a photo of their receipt and attaching it to an entry and then syncing it with their accounting software for reimbursement and client invoicing.
The Industry Report also indicates that clients are wanting the ability to check online the number of hours spent on their case, with 50% saying they’re more likely to hire a lawyer who takes electronic payments, 47% more likely to hire a lawyer who accepts automated payments, and 40% saying they would never hire a lawyer who didn’t take debit or credit cards. With Time Tracker law firms can turn their time and expense entries into branded client invoices in seconds, connect their account to Stripe to have payment links automatically added to invoices for immediate online payment. Clients are also able to login to their client portal and view completed work, outstanding invoices and pay bills online.
To complete the time, expense and billing cycle there are also apps that allow firms to automate their accounts receivable. Invoice Tracker by eBillity is an example of one that connects with accounting platforms and practice management software like Clio and Thomson Reuters Time and Billing to improve cash flow by getting firms paid faster. Invoice Tracker sends automatic invoice reminders, accepts online payments and reconciles once payments are made.
“Being able to showcase our time tracking software specifically built for law firms is exciting for our team, and we look forward to showing legal professionals how automation can improve their law firm’s bottom line, says Douglas Dweck, COO and Co Founder.”
eBillity will be there at Booth 311 come by to say hi and learn how to automate time tracking, invoices and expenses from anywhere, on any device, with Time Tracker. Our software includes legal friendly features built right in, such as UTBMS patent billing codes, trust accounting, 4-click invoicing, LSS realization reports, and a conflict checker.

Casepoint eDiscovery undergoes a transformative upgrade thanks to the new Casepoint Platform, an entirely new legal technology platform optimized for enterprise-scale application development.
Tysons, VA – January 23, 2019 – Casepoint, a leader in providing innovative eDiscovery solutions in a single, cloud-based platform, today announces two major legal technology developments: Casepoint eDiscovery has undergone a transformative upgrade, bolstered by 10 years of eDiscovery experience and client feedback, and it is the preeminent application built upon the new Casepoint Platform. Casepoint Platform is an innovative technology platform that law firms and legal departments can use to integrate a full range of enterprise applications, documents, legal data, and workflows, into a single flexible platform. With the unveiling of the eDiscovery application rebuilt on the new platform, legal organizations now have the option to create and manage technology to meet their own specifications, from database setup to data processing and all the way through to the end of discovery. Casepoint will unveil both products at Legalweek New York, which takes place January 28–31, 2019.
Casepoint eDiscovery is a full-spectrum eDiscovery solution that features state-of-the-art tools for cloud-based collections, processing, culling, review, and highly customizable productions. It also offers built-in artificial intelligence and analytics that are the most robust in the industry, with advanced tools for TAR 1.0 and TAR 2.0, early case assessment (ECA), and advanced data visualization tools. All customers get the complete package – there are no features to turn on or pay for later. With Casepoint eDiscovery, legal teams can complete discovery projects faster, at a lower cost, and with greater accuracy using a single, integrated, easy-to-use tool.
Casepoint eDiscovery is also an infinitely scalable private cloud-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution capable of handling millions of documents, multiple terabytes of data, thousands of legal matters, and unlimited numbers of users. Pricing has been structured for maximum transparency, without upsells or user fees. Security is enforced at the company, data center, and application levels, and features military-grade AES 256-bit encryption. Data centers are fully replicated for business continuity.
“Our eDiscovery technology was already the fastest in the industry, and we’ve now doubled that speed and created an entirely new platform redesigned from the ground up to meet clients’ most pressing needs,” said Vishal Rajpara, Casepoint’s Chief Technology Officer. “We are confident Casepoint eDiscovery is the best, most thoroughly integrated, and comprehensive solution in the marketplace. We’ve designed our technology to put customers in control. With Casepoint Platform our customers will have access to an incredibly flexible platform that allows them to easily manage matters, tasks and align internal and external users with user-controlled administration. While we know most of our existing customers will continue to request full service from the dedicated delivery teams and project managers they have come to know and trust, we are excited to offer self-service options as well, and everything in between.”
Attendees at Legalweek will also have the opportunity to demo Casepoint Platform, a fully integrated web-based ecosystem that has been in development for two years. Casepoint Platform is an enterprise-scale application development and deployment environment built upon web APIs and an N+1 scalable architecture. Casepoint eDiscovery runs on Casepoint Platform, and eDiscovery users will feel the benefits immediately. The new platform has been re-engineered to double processing speeds and provide users of the interface with near-instantaneous speed. Law firms and legal departments will have the option to customize the technology to meet their own specifications from database set up to data processing and all the way through to the end of discovery, without incurring extra consulting fees.
“Casepoint Platform is the foundation of Casepoint’s Law 3.0 vision,” said Haresh Bhungalia, Casepoint’s Chief Executive Officer. “Law firms and legal departments will use this technology to customize and integrate the entire spectrum of legal workflows, and this will allow them to dramatically streamline operations, control costs at every level, and identify and monitor key performance indicators unique to their organization.”

Your small or medium-sized firm can suffer quickly, with long-lasting repercussions, if even one payment is missed. Your cash flow depends on a steady stream of reliable payments so when do you hire a collection agency to deal with your outstanding invoices? What sorts of things should you be doing before that step is even considered?
Before you decide to go ahead and look to outside help, it is important to consider whether or not you’ve taken all the necessary steps within your power to collect those overdue payments. This could include things like sending invoice reminders, making phone calls, or sending letters to your client with an increasingly firm tone. But what happens to your billable hours and your client relationships as a result of these manual methods?
Debt collection is never an enjoyable part of business, but it is necessary for your financial health. It’s hard to know when to tow the line, and when you’re being too firm.
