Non-billable tasks in private practice compete for lawyers’ time and attention alongside their primary client work. These tasks include preparing and submitting timesheets, reviewing invoices, following up on collections, drafting engagement letters and proposals, attending internal meetings, resolving conflict checks, undertaking pro bono work, completing mandatory CLPD training, engaging in business development activities, and drafting articles and publications. The list is seemingly endless.
These administrative commitments consume considerable time and energy that could otherwise be spent serving clients and practicing law, ultimately generating revenue.
To help lawyers deliver quality legal work and efficient client service, reliable administrative support is crucial in alleviating and freeing their time to focus on client deliverables and revenue-generating activities by taking on and sharing responsibility for these tasks.
