This gives attorneys the ability to build better business strategies that lead to increases in revenue as well as smooth management of workflow.

For example, let's say a lawyer spends 4 hours drafting a contract for a client. Legal billing software can easily log those 4 hours as billable time, assign it to the client's account, and generate an invoice that accurately reflects the time spent on that particular task. This saves the lawyer valuable time and ensures they are properly compensated for their work.
