Often paired with legal services engagements.

Billing, time, and matter data live in separate systems with no unified reporting layer

No real-time connection between time entry, billing, and cost data

Do you integrate with Aderant, Elite, or other legal billing systems?

Yes. We have worked with legal billing and practice management systems including Aderant and Thomson Reuters Elite. We build the reporting layer on top of your existing systems rather than replacing them.

Yes. Matter profitability is one of the most common requests from law firm leadership. We connect time entry, billing, and cost data to produce real-time matter profitability views by practice group, client, and attorney.

How do you handle client confidentiality in your engagements?

We work within your existing data governance and confidentiality frameworks. We do not require access to matter content, only the operational and financial data needed to build reporting. All engagements include a data handling agreement.

Most legal analytics engagements run 8 to 12 weeks. We start with a 30-day Analytics Truth Audit that maps your current reporting landscape and identifies the highest-value improvements before any build work begins.

Analytics consulting for law firms and legal tech. Matter metrics, billing, and AI readiness.

We create dashboards for partners and practice groups. Simple tools that put the data you need right at your fingertips. No extra noise, just clear insights to help you make smarter calls.
