Why Law Firms Should Adopt Project Business Automation
When contracts, billable hours, external counsel, and client profitability are handled on separate systems, control slips away and financial risk increases.
In many law firms, business operations still run on fragmented systems one for time tracking, another for billing, and yet another for managing external counsels or subcontractors. This fragmentation creates blind spots: no single source of truth for project status, workload distribution, or client profitability.
As a result, partners and managers often rely on manual reporting and late-stage financial reviews to understand whether a client or engagement is actually profitable. Delays, duplicate data entry, and misalignment between legal and finance teams turn daily operations into an administrative burden.
