Maintaining ethical and effective billing and collection practices is one of the many challenges law firms face on the business side of the practice. What’s more, delivering the best outcome for your client does not always guarantee prompt payment. Speakers, Erin McCartney, J.D., and Erik Crep, J.D., will discuss the ethics of billing, how to implement client-focused billing processes, and strategies you can use to help you avoid potential fee disputes. Join us to learn helpful tips to establish ethical billing processes to help ensure your firm receives payment for its hard work.
