Description

AI and E-Invoicing for Law Firms: Prepare, Bill and Secure

Adapt your firm's billing to structured electronic invoicing and industrialise fee follow-up

  • 1 day — 7 h
  • In-person or virtual
  • Expert
  • Up to 6 participants

The move to electronic invoicing obliges every law firm to review its billing chain: issuing fee notes, required invoice particulars, transmission through an accredited platform and archiving. For a lawyer whose billing relies on office templates and manual time tracking, the issue concerns internal organisation as much as compliance.

This one-day programme is designed for lawyers already comfortable with the firm's digital tools. It covers the transition to structured formats, then what AI adds: qualifying recorded time, preparing invoices, chasing unpaid fees and monitoring outstanding balances. Client confidentiality is examined at every stage.

Learning objectives

  • Describe the electronic invoicing chain applicable to the firm
  • Adapt fee note templates to structured invoice formats
  • Automate the capture and qualification of time recorded
  • Use AI to prepare invoices and fee reminders
  • Review the data transmitted against client confidentiality duties
  • Monitor outstanding fees and the firm's collection performance

What makes this programme different

The programme starts from the firm's actual billing practice rather than a theoretical model
Participants configure an end-to-end invoicing workflow
Client confidentiality is addressed for every tool demonstrated
