Did you know that 1 in 10 legal professionals find law firm accounting their most challenging function?¹ The struggle is real—and no surprise since outdated T&E tools and processes create roadblocks to efficiency.

Modern T&E solutions offer a streamlined, automated approach, empowering law firms to regain control over expenses, boost billable hours, and ensure compliance with stringent ethical and financial regulations.

Common T&E challenges facing law firms

Complex expense reporting: Attorneys and staff often juggle multiple cases, jurisdictions, and currencies, making manual expense reporting a tedious and error-prone process. 

Accurate expense tracking & allocation: Precisely tracking expenses is just as important as billable hours, and allocating them to specific matters is crucial for accurate client billing and firm profitability.

Regulatory and ethical compliance: Law firms operate under strict guidelines regarding custodial client accounts and trust accounting. Managing these requirements while maintaining efficiency can be challenging.

Data security and privacy: Protecting sensitive client and financial data is paramount. T&E solutions must meet the highest security standards to safeguard confidential information.

Boost billable hours

• Automate receipt collection: Eliminate expense reports and ensure that no billable expenses go unaccounted for.

Enhance trust accounting

• Three-way reconciliation: Automate the reconciliation process for firm accounts and trust accounts—ensuring compliance with regulations and client billing guidelines. *
• Hard vs. soft cost tracking: Automatically identify and track hard and soft costs, providing greater visibility into firm expenses.
• Centralized data: Store all firm and client expenses in a centralized system for easy access and reporting.

The future of law firm T&E
