Online Resources: The Billable Hour Debate - Another Round
An interesting article on the future fate of the "billable hour" by Douglas McCollam appeared on American Lawyer Media's Law.com site. You can read the article here.
As our blogging colleagues at Corante note, the article does a good job of sketching the history and background of hourly billing for legal services and gives an update on efforts by the ABA and others to explore and support alternative billing methods.
For those who want to measure the impact of billable hours on their personal life, and figure out what to do about it, check out our Work Life Balance Calculator.
Have a wonderful weekend!
