FINANCE REVIEW · Workflow idea

Prepare a careful first pass at authorized time entries, billing rules, and proposed legal-service invoices—then verify it.

Prepare authorized time entries, billing rules, and proposed legal-service invoices as a private review draft for an accountable owner. Client and matter data may be privileged, and extracted time entries or rates can be inaccurate. Restrict access, confirm authority and billing terms, reconcile each entry and total to original records, protect attachments, and require an authorized finance owner or responsible lawyer to approve each invoice before filing or sending. Use only necessary, authorized information; explain retention; respect consent and source rights; verify material details; and keep external or consequential actions under accountable human approval.
