In today’s legal landscape, law firms face the constant challenge of balancing quality service delivery with profitability. One of the most effective strategies to achieve this balance is through Legal Process Outsourcing services. Streamline your legal operations with SBA’s outsourcing solutions and discover how this approach can transform your practice.

The Billable Hours Dilemma

Billable Hours remain the cornerstone of law firm revenue, yet studies show that lawyers spend only 2.3 hours of their 8-hour workday on billable tasks (Thomson Reuters’ State of Legal Market Report 2023). According to the American Bar Association’s Legal Technology Survey, the remaining time is consumed by non-billable tasks such as:

• Administrative work
• Document management
• Client communication coordination
• Research and data entry
• Calendar management
• Invoice processing
