86% of attorneys say they spend too much time on administrative tasks and not enough time practicing law.

Small to midsize legal firms across all specializations may have more in common than they think. Our research shows that attorneys may be losing out on more than $5,000 in revenue each week due to inefficiency. With time lost to tedious tasks, attorneys are only able to bill clients for 21 to 30 hours, while working closer to 41 to 50 hours a week—leading to lost productivity and worse, lost revenue.

To help lawyers get back to doing what they do best, we’ve put together this report that dives deeper into our survey findings, as well as the solutions law firms find most effective for automating tasks and processes.

We’ve also rounded up the following resources that can help your firm find the right software to put administrative tasks on autopilot.
