What’s happening right now for most law firms is they send an invoice out and wait to see if they get a check a few weeks to months later. There’s a series of meetings and awkward collection calls, but in reality there is a lot of vagueness around the status of each funnel from collection to payment.Headnote tracks all of these steps so your firm is wasting less time making collection calls and comparing notes and more time focusing on practicing the law. Get $30 of free transaction fees from Headnote at: https://headnote.com/maxlawyer/ Reach out to Sarah at: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahkschaaf/ Make sure to register for MaxLawCon19, June 6 and 7 in St.Louis. For more content from us please subscribe to our Youtube Channel Thanks so much for listening to the show!
