Time Tracking Software That's Automatic

Starting today, you can — using a new integration between two of the hottest products for solo and small firm attorneys.

Many of you are familiar with my company, Chrometa — our product helps you capture all of your billable time by acting as your personal timekeeper, so that you don’t have to constantly hit a start/stop timer, or enter your time manually as you go.

I’m pleased to announce that we’ve partnered with small law firm practice management system Clio to deliver a seamless time capture and practice management tool to solo and small firm attorneys.

Did you know that you could be underestimating your billable hours by 20% … 30% … up to 50%?

A recent survey of solo and small firm attorneys reported they were only capturing and billing for 67% of their legitimate billable time, on average.

This means that a firm with $1 million in gross billings could be losing as much as a half of a million dollars a year for work they performed but never billed the client for.

Want to learn how you can increase your billable time – while actually working less? If so, then this FREE special report, The Top 5 Ways to Increase Your Billable Time (Without Working Longer Hours), authored by Seth Rowland, Esq.
