Frequently asked questions
How do lawyers bill in 6-minute units?
Tot up time in 6-minute (0.1 hour) increments per task and enter each as a line, or sum to a single per-matter line with a description. invoice44 multiplies hours × rate automatically.
How do I show disbursements separately?
List each disbursement (court fees, searches, expert reports) as its own line marked as a reimbursement, so it is plainly not your fee.
Fixed fee or hourly for legal work?
Fixed fees suit defined matters (wills, conveyancing, simple contracts); hourly suits litigation and complex advisory. invoice44 supports both, even on the same invoice.
Can I issue interim invoices on a long matter?
Yes — issue interim invoices at agreed milestones or monthly during the matter, with the matter reference on each.
