This program originally aired on May 11, 2023. Due to the nature of its content, this live program is not eligible for CLE/CPD credit.


"Did we mean to buy that?" This is, fundamentally, the question that Legal Operations professionals often want to ask their litigation team stakeholders. To succeed, Legal Operations and attorney colleagues must collaborate as partners, as well as with outside counsel through better matter management and eBilling processes. Even though in-house legal professionals understand the big picture, sometimes they spot issues in billing, some quite humorous, but others potentially risky, that need to be shared with their stakeholders. Join us as our panelists share real examples of invoice review guideline non-compliance and help legal operations and litigation leaders to:


  • Learn how Legal Operations professionals and attorneys should collaborate in the billing process.
  • Learn to communicate about billing discrepancies professionally and effectively.
  • Study real-life examples of invoice review guideline non-compliance.
