Most recently, R&K added the new Business Intelligence Report Writer to the list!   


The BI Report Writer is extremely user-friendly, allowing users to create and run a custom report within minutes (exporting to Excel, PDF, or both).

Legal Management Systems: Let's Talk about Time Management

Are your timekeepers efficiently capturing time? Are you concerned that billable time goes unrecorded? 

Time Management is about maximizing billable time.

It's important to...

  • Make Time Entry Easy for Everyone 
With LMS, timekeepers can choose a methodology that works for them rather than conform to the system.

  • Recording Time Daily
ABA studies in 1983 concluded that billed time can increase up to 8-12% if recorded as you go...reconstructing time does not work.

  • Use Full Day Accounting 
Timekeeping is a discipline and understanding where your entire day in the office goes will increase billable time.
