About the Event
Law firms are losing 15–25% of potential revenue—not because of rates or demand, but because of breakdowns in the billing and collections process. In this Coffee Break session with Mattern and Zebraworks, we’ll take a practical look at where revenue leakage actually occurs and why most efforts to fix it fall short, and touch upon how firms can keep expenses in check. The reality: Law firms don’t have a revenue problem. They have a conversion problem.
In this session, we’ll cover:
Where firms lose revenue between WIP, billing, and collections
How firms are using AI to reduce lockup and improve realization
Why adding staff hasn’t solved the problem
How manual exceptions slow the billing and collections cycle
Leveraging strategic exceptions to pull cash forward
How leading firms are improving billing velocity and collection outcomes
What a modern, connected invoices-to-cash workflow actually looks like
How firms can keep rising expenses in check and in most cases, lower them.
