Drafting Time Entries

Made Easy For You

Are you tired of struggling to come up with a better way to describe every .1 of your day?

Have you ever spent a .3 of your admin time just trying to describe what you did for a .5 task from yesterday?

If you answered yes to either of those, you’re not alone!  

It’s not easy when the clients are coming up with more restrictions and more sophisticated methods for reducing their legal bills.  

If you’re a legal professional working in a law firm with a billable hour requirement, mastering the skill of drafting time entries is a critical skill to have.

The Art & Science of Drafting Time Entries will give you methods that make it easy for the clients (and the billing partner!) to see the value of your work.


Some highlights of what we cover in this live workshop:


  • Key content that should be in every single time entry
  • How to spend less time on drafting time entries and more time doing the actual work that needs to be done
  • The red flags that corporate clients are looking for in your time entries
  • Understanding the importance of showing value and not just adding more words to your time entry
  • How to get over the two hurdles of every time entry
