Billing administration support

Legal billing and time-recording administration support

Billing records depend on clear, timely administration. RemoteSkills can support the routine capture and organisation of information for a firm’s own billing process, including the verified LEAP workflow of summarising calls and emails for client billing records.

Firm-controlled administrative workflows

Clear divisions between support and professional decisions

Review points before the firm uses billing records

Support the record, not the professional decision

An administrator can prepare records, organise supporting information and follow a firm-approved format. The firm decides whether time is chargeable, what is billed, how a narrative is written and what is communicated to the client. Those decisions remain with the firm.

Make instructions specific

A robust administrative process identifies the source communications, required matter fields, naming conventions, deadlines and escalation path. It also distinguishes routine recording from circumstances that need a fee earner or supervisor to decide the appropriate action.

Use review to protect quality

The firm can sample entries, check records before invoicing and update templates as its process changes. RemoteSkills follows the agreed administrative workflow; the firm retains legal judgment, client advice, billing approval and oversight.

Frequently asked questions

Can administrative support decide what to charge a client?

No. Chargeability, billing narratives, approval and client communication remain decisions for the firm.

How can support help with time-recording administration?

It can help organise routine source information and create administrative records in the firm’s agreed format, with review and escalation set by the firm.

What happens when an item is unclear?

The administrator flags it to the firm rather than making a legal or billing judgment.

RemoteSkills provides administrative support only. The firm retains legal judgment, responsibility for client advice, supervision and every decision requiring legal expertise.
