GLEbill for Law Departments and Consultants
Rolling out a legal matter management and ebilling system is a huge undertaking. Everyone knows that first impressions of a new system can mean the success or failure of the project, and jobs could be on the line. We created GLEbill specifically with this in mind.
We offer inexpensive, short-term subscriptions specifically to help Law Departments and Consultants working on UAT to create better use-case specific test files. And, we can create those test files in every LEDES Oversight Committee-endorsed format in the way they were designed.
Feedback Received on GLEbill
GLEbill, our new tool for legal ebilling, has been available in the marketplace for 2 weeks now and we are happy to list just 3 of the comments received on the product.
– “It’s a complete rethinking of legal ebilling.”
– “It’s too bad this wasn’t available when ebilling first started because this is the way it always should have been done.”
– “This is so easy!”
Proposed LEDES Standards for Public Comment
The LEDES Oversight Committee has two projects that have provided draft standards for public comment:
The first is from the Ebilling Standards subcommittee, which proposes updates to Ebilling XML 2.0x, 2.1x and 2.2x. The changes are to correct an inadequate field length, add one field and align the standards. You can learn more about the proposed changes and provide feedback to the LOC here.
In addition, the IP subcommittee has proposed UTBMS codes specifically for Patent Prosecution matters. This is a really interesting take on using UTBMS, allowing for codes that pair with the USPTO. You can learn more about the proposed changes and provide feedback to the LOC here.
The public comment period closes for both projects on July 25, 2022.
New Timekeeping System
I had a demo of a new timekeeping system today that was really interesting. Called ClockedLegal, not only does it have a great mobile capabilities, it auto-codes UTBMS on time entries!
New at Legal Tech
Just back from Legal Tech where I found a new ELM system, LeGuard, that allows clients access to outside counsel WIP in order to manage matters and spend. To my knowledge this is the second system of this type now available. Is legal ebilling evolving in this direction?
LEDES Oversight Committee Membership Structure Change
The membership of the LEDES Oversight Committee has approved changing from membership by organization to individual membership. The change will facilitate the creation of additional functionality to administer and serve the membership, and allow membership to follow individual members as they move to new employers.
