SESSION FOUR: ‘Financial hygiene’ is a job for all partners

Wednesday 6 November (1400 - 1445)

Description

Pricing, billing and collections are not seen as an attractive part of the practice of law. Many lawyers, including many partners, shy away from getting involved in the ‘business aspects’ of the practice of law. However, financial hygiene, getting the pricing right, getting the billing right and ensuring cash is collected, are critical to the success of any law firm and are ultimately jobs that all partners need to pay attention to. It is also important that law firms put in place the right mechanisms to ensure the burden on partners is not too great and/or using too much of their time. Striking the balance whilst underscoring the importance of financial hygiene is the topic of this session.
