Bill the thinking, not the typing.

On the call, we would ask

  • How much of a billable week is spent on work nobody can bill: proposals, intake, chasing documents?
  • Where does the firm's past work live, and could a new hire find it?
  • Which client documents could the firm never let leave the building?
  • Who reviews anything that goes to a client, and would that change?
