Case Study on Billing Back Office Support for a Law Firm

Discover how Outsource2india helped a mid-sized law firm to clear the accumulated backlog and bounce back to regular work. Often, law firms of every size tend to neglect billing and accumulate large receivables. Such accumulated back office billing work requires domain knowledge and expertise. We helped one such mid-sized law firm to quickly and efficiently clear their backlog. We successfully handles their paperwork, managed their peak load, and filed all the paperwork electronically. In this way we helped them to significantly cut down on staff related expenses, while appropriately managing the seasonal load.

Overview

Several small-mid sized law firms often neglect their billing and end up with large receivables. Billing work for them requires some domain knowledge of the legal process in US. An additional complication arises because they treat each case matter as a separate "accounting unit" and all the costs and incidental expenses need to be accounted for separately for them as it goes into the client billing for that case matter.
