Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good billable hours target for attorneys?
Most law firms target 1,800-2,200 billable hours per year, which translates to about 35-42 hours per week. However, top-performing attorneys with good systems often exceed 2,400 billable hours while maintaining work-life balance.
How do I calculate my utilization rate?
Divide your billable hours by your total working hours, then multiply by 100. For example, if you work 50 hours per week and bill 20 hours, your utilization rate is 40% (20 Γ· 50 Γ 100).
What tasks reduce attorney billable hours?
Common non-billable time drains include client intake paperwork, scheduling, email management, document organization, billing and invoicing, and administrative tasks. Automation can recover 10-15 hours per week from these activities.
Can automation really increase billable hours?
Yes. Our clients typically recover 15+ hours per week by automating client intake, time tracking, document generation, and routine communications. This translates to $50,000-$150,000 in additional annual revenue per attorney.
