"Generating a PDF of the actual invoice automatically is wonderful. It's another task that will save us hours of work, because we used to manually print the invoice, scan it and link it. Some of our clients like receiving the invoices by email, which we can also do with the PDF as an attachment."

Increase your billable time. Attorneys who contemporaneously track their time log more hours. Now the time/billing feature combined with your practice control software takes the drudgery out of time-management tasks. Pull up a file in AbacusLaw Gold software and activate the clock. Make a note, click the Bill button, and a bill slip is automatically generated for that client and matter. Your most important administrative chores just got easier!

AbacusLaw is an easy to use, state-of-the-art time and billing legal practice management program. Created specifically for law firm use, the Time & Billing module integrates with the Abacus Trust Accounting, Accounts Payable and General Ledger modules. Repetitive tasks are virtually eliminated; our "one data entry" integration performs multiple tasks throughout the program. Staff time is reduced and bills go out on time - encouraging prompt payment and improved cash flow. And an extensive reporting system keeps attorneys and staff well informed of time and billing status.
