Workflow blueprint

Legal time and billing software should preserve matter authority

A page-specific review aid, not a universal product or compliance claim.

Keep matter, time, rate source, reviewer, invoice edition, correction and client question in a reviewable chain.

TL;DR — Keep matter, time, rate source, reviewer, invoice edition, correction and client question in a reviewable chain.

2

Capture time

Keep narrative, rate source, activity, reviewer and correction relationship together.

Page-specific decision aid

Matter billing review ledger

A matter ledger linking authority, time entry, rate source, narrative, review, invoice edition, correction and client response.

  • Matter authority is explicit
  • Corrections do not erase original time
  • Client questions remain attached
