By understanding and categorizing timecard narratives into types of work, Clocktimizer gives law firms incredibly powerful data that can be used to solve a huge variety of challenges.
Your lawyers are already writing timecard narratives. So, why not use that data to:
1. Understand how to reduce write-offs and increase realization rates
2. Know which people will benefit most from access and training for specific technologies
3. Quantify the ROI on new technology and processes
4. Find the right expert, however specific or niche your need is
5. Reduce time spent by fee earners on non-billable tasks
Join this webinar to understand how firms are using timecard narratives to successfully tackle these challenges and more.

Part 2: Innovation For the People, By the People
SPEAKERS:
Bethany Knoblauch, Director, Matter Planning, K&L Gates
Jessie Spressart, Managing Director, Optia Consulting
MODERATOR:
Innovation can be anything that improves how something is done. We often spend our time focusing on what is not working and trying to fix it, but there is value in focusing on what is working well and building off of that. In the legal industry, in particular, we tend to spend our time talking about, and complaining about, what is broken. We often have much more success and less personal frustration when we focus on what is working and how to expand on it.
One way to think about this is to play to your own strengths. We can't help people be at their best unless we are at our best. This session will help you identify (via some free surveys) your own strengths and how to best play to them to improve your organization and succeed in your job.

Over the past decade, the sophistication and complexity of legal pricing, service delivery, and invoicing has risen sharply. This confluence of factors makes it more important than ever for firms to have a seamless process from quote to cash, yet many firms continue to employ disconnected processes and struggle with producing invoices that are accurate, convey value, and comply with client guidelines.
