Expanding Your Digital Strategy with RPA

RPA involves more than just automating processes. Essentially, RPA creates virtual workers to perform rule-based tasks. Currently, paralegals and attorneys are being paid to perform highly repetitive, time-consuming tasks that could easily be performed by bots, when those people could be better used to perform higher-value, billable work. Robots aren't here to replace lawyers. Rather, RPA can make lawyers better and more efficient at their jobs by freeing them up to focus on the most valuable parts of the job.

Boosting Billables with RPA

RPA is your key to streamlining your workflows in order to do more billable work without adding more billers. Among the tasks typically performed as part of nearly every matter, many are routine, involving little high-level thought and are also quite time-consuming. A great deal of legal work is rule-based, which doesn't mean the tasks aren't necessary or even important. It just means that these tasks don't need to be performed by staff who could otherwise be performing more valuable billable work for clients. By applying RPA to these routine tasks and freeing up attorneys to focus on billable tasks, firms can finally accomplish the ever-elusive goal of maximizing your billable hours.
