Basically, it sucks.Īlthough alternative billing structures are out there, the bill-per-hour is still the most widely accepted way for an attorney to charge a client, especially when you include some of the hybrid models being used today. Another attorney proudly announced that, as part of a switch to being a government attorney, she would never have to record time again. One attorney I know equated recording time to clicking on the meter in a taxi cab. Writing down the value and effort that make up your legal advice, in six-minute increments, is an irritating experience shared by almost any lawyer in private practice. No one task is more essential for law firms, and yet more universally loathed among lawyers, than recording time.
